Recruitment

Amy, Nuclear Technician

Robert, Utility Assistant

Southern Company subsidiaries have one of the lowest turnover rates (4.2 percent in 2012) in an industry that itself ranks low in employee turnover. We've joined forces with high schools, technical schools and colleges to recruit and prepare students to pursue careers in power generation, power delivery and nuclear. We also are involved with military partnerships. Our military recruitment efforts have had a significant impact on our hiring over the last few years. For example, in 2012, 15 percent of new hires were veterans, National Guard, or Reserve members.
