How can I find military job boards for employers?

I'm interested in the possibility of a civilian role connected to military operations. How do military job boards for employers work, and can they help in finding opportunities?

a year ago

Finding a civilian role connected to military operations can be a unique and rewarding way to use your skills. Military job boards are often intended to connect veterans, their family members, and other job seekers with employers who value the training and qualities developed through military service.

These job boards generally provide platform for employers (specifically ones that are military-friendly or government agencies) to post job openings. Many of these employers are actively seeking both former military personnel and civilians to fill various roles. Positions can range from those directly in defense and government, to fields such as healthcare, engineering, IT, and a host of others where military engagement can provide valuable skills and experience.

There are several prominent military job boards that you might find useful.

1. USAJobs: This is the U.S. Government's official website for federal job listings across many agencies and organizations, including those related to the military and defense.

2. Military.com: This site features a job board that allows you to search for jobs by category, location, and even specific military skills if you’re a veteran.

3. ClearanceJobs: As a job board for professionals seeking jobs that require some level of security clearance, this site can be especially advantageous if you're looking for roles within defense and intelligence.

Keep in mind to tailor your resume and cover letter to each position, highlighting skills and experiences that are especially relevant to the role. Using these job boards can indeed help find the right opportunities for you. Good luck with your job search!
