As someone about to leave the military, I'm looking into different job sites that cater specifically to veterans or ex-military. Are there any websites that are particularly helpful for former service members to find employment?
Absolutely, there are several job sites that cater to veterans or ex-military individuals.
One well-known platform is "Hire Heroes USA." They have veteran job boards and provide personalized career coaching services as well.
Another one is VetJobs. This site is endorsed by multiple veteran organizations and serves as a leading source for finding veteran-specific job opportunities.
You might also look into Helmets to Hardhats. If you're interested in a career in the construction industry, they assist military personnel to transition into civilian life and find jobs in construction.
Lastly, Military.com’s job board is a very comprehensive resource. This site offers a wide variety of job postings that come from companies seeking veterans specifically.
Most of these sites offer more than just job postings, including resources focused on resume assistance, networking, and potential training programs. Take advantage of these resources as they can genuinely facilitate your transition and open doors to new career opportunities.
In addition to these resources, consider leveraging your network from the military as well. Sometimes, formal and informal connections from your service can lead to job opportunities.
