Veterans are included in DEI hiring practices. As are disabilities.

If you've applied for a job in the past 10 years surely you've had to declare your gender, ethnic background, veteran status, and disability status.

My message was specifically about the Yellow Ribbon Program, not if DEI includes people with disabilities.

I did not. I believe that here, in Switzerland, it'd be illegal to ask for your gender or ethnicity. Age is legal, although not often practiced in IT. Veteran status - not a thing.
