The Department of Labor recently launched Veterans.gov, a one-stop shop career hub intended to connect transitioning servicemembers and veteran job seekers with employers.

The site’s main page provides visitors several pathways to explore information on the site for job seekers, aspiring entrepreneurs and prospective employers. The site also features an interactive map, allowing users to search by state and territory, along with available career opportunities listed by federal agencies in industries such as agriculture, energy and transportation.

Other features of the website include:

• One-on-one assistance from approximately 2,500 American job centers located around the country

• Online job postings

• Information regarding approved local training programs, colleges and universities

The site also provides a link to additional information on other DoL Veterans Employment and Training Service initiatives for women veterans and spouses of military members and veterans.
