Military Staffing Series Part 3

Sites for finding Military/Veterans!!

“In America” by the Charlie Daniels Band is a song about America and its veterans. About how we may disagree amongst ourselves but when it counts we stand as one, we take care of our own. In this post we are going see the many sites that are out there, that can help us find veterans.

Monster has a special way to designate veteran candidates, and even allow us to search for veterans specifically and or to post jobs veterans will find.

Thanks so much for the lists! As a military spouse and as someone working for a veteran owned company, veteran hiring is a special issue for me. There are tons of resources, sites and programs, yet veteran unemployment still is in the double digits.

At recruitDC in Spring 2012, we touched on some of the issues associated with veteran hiring, namely how recruiters can change their mindset and how company can augment their programs:

Comment by IT Recruitment on July 24, 2013 at 5:48pm: What a great list of resources. In working with a Dallas IT staffing company, I've learned that the most important thing a veteran can do to make the transition to the private sector is find a mentor to offer guidance, insights and contacts. This is a way employers can help – assign a seasoned employee to take the newly-hired veteran under his or her tutelage. Serving in the military is a life-changing event. During service, veterans often obtain skills and training that make them valuable to employers. However, regardless of those skills, veterans deserve a place in American business. Hiring vets can be a win for everyone if both sides understand the fundamental differences between the military and private sector and determine ways to successfully integrate veterans into the workforce.
