AT&T Prints Veteran's 'Invisible' Résumés on Camouflage for Veteran’s Day

For nearly a century, AT&T has been dedicated to supporting those who serve the United States. And this Veteran’s Day, AT&T has partnered with BBDO to create an out-of-home activation that highlights AT&T’s commitment to hiring 20,000 veterans by 2020. 

Camouflage uniforms are used by military personnel to become invisible during a war. But it’s when veterans return to civilian life and begin looking for jobs that they can feel more invisible.

The campaign, which will run in Atlanta, Dallas, New York and Washington DC, includes wild postings, print, static and digital bus shelters, and a large painted wall in New York, and showcases real resumes from veterans who are now employed by AT&T. The campaign will run through the end of November and asks companies to join AT&T in seeing their potential, not just their service.

Another way AT&T is showing its support for service members and their families is through discounts for active military, veterans and first responders. A 30-second spot, called 'The Wait', highlights this offer through the story of the joy that follows when a spouse and his deployed loved one finally connect.
