Navigating the Civilian Job Market: A Valuable Resource for Veterans

As we honor the sacrifices of our nation's heroes, it's essential to provide them with the tools and support they need to thrive in the civilian workforce. That's why Job Action Day 2013 is dedicated to empowering transitioning military personnel with expert advice, practical resources, and connections to potential employers.

Whether you're a veteran yourself or know someone who is, this initiative is designed to help thousands of ex-military job seekers navigate the often-daunting process of finding employment in the civilian sector. By sharing this valuable resource with your network, you can make a real difference in the lives of those who have served our country.

This year's Job Action Day features an impressive collection of over 25 articles, covering topics such as resume building, entrepreneurial ventures, and effective job hunting strategies. One particularly insightful piece, "How Heroes Should Be Using LinkedIn" by Steve Levy, offers actionable tips on leveraging LinkedIn to reconnect with fellow veterans and uncover new career opportunities.

But did you know that there are social networks specifically designed for military personnel? These platforms can be a game-changer in the job search process, as referrals from trusted connections are often the most effective way to land a job. That's why we recommend exploring resources like Rally Point, Together We Served, and Unite Us, which focus on building relationships and facilitating connections within the military community.
