The defense industry is in an “unprecedented” hiring frenzy, driven by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and rising geopolitical tensions, according to a Financial Times report. In 2023, global defense spending hit $2.4 trillion, with the U.S. accounting for 37%. Major defense firms like Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman are filling nearly 6,000 positions, while the industry as a whole seeks to add about thousands of different roles.
