(Washington, D.C.) – “We at Vietnam Veterans of America are
pleased to endorse VetJobs, the nation’s largest military-related job board
on the Internet,” said John Rowan, VVA National President. “With the
unemployment rate of newly discharged military veterans hovering around 15
percent–three times the national unemployment rate–VetJobs is a key resource
for them and for Vietnam-era veterans too young to retire.
“We have looked at many sites that purport to provide jobs
for veterans and their family members,” Rowan said. “Our endorsement is
meant to let our members know that VVA recognizes the success that VetJobs
has had in finding quality jobs for thousands of veterans and their family
members. We encourage them to use the VetJobs site:
www.VetJobs.com.”
“We are very pleased to have been
selected for this distinctive endorsement by Vietnam Veterans of America,”
said VetJobs President Ted Daywalt. “This is an important endorsement since
most of the 12.6 million veterans currently in the work force are from the
Vietnam era. There are over 40,000 job boards and career portals on the
Internet. Knowing which site offers the best services and support for our
veterans and their family members can spell the difference between success
and failure in the job search.”
Seven-year-old VetJobs is partially
owned by Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States and is recognized as
the leading military-related Internet job board assisting U.S. military
veterans worldwide as well as transitioning military personnel and their
family members. Thousands of veterans and their family members have found
jobs with more than 7,000 employers who use VetJobs as a primary recruiting
site. There is no charge for veterans to use VetJobs.
