Blackstone Promises to Hire 50,000 Veterans

International asset management, financial services, investment banking, and private equity company the Blackstone Group has pledged to purposefully begin hiring US veterans.

Blackstone is promising that it will hire fifty thousand vets, over the next five years.

The company is really a conglomeration of many companies, and they will work to find room for the vets in all of their holdings.

CEO Steve Schwarzman hopes that by doing so Blackstone can help vets by not just giving them jobs, but by improving their lives.

He also hopes that the company's involvement will help see a decrease in veteran suicide rates.
