As mentioned in a recent blog post, veteran unemployment is a major issue that affects a large number of veterans. The post mentioned that often times, veterans find themselves unemployed; this is not because they are unqualified for the jobs they are applying to, but more likely that they have a difficult time in simply conveying how their military service actually equipped them with the tools for a job in the civilian sector.
To help combat this common issue, Disabled Veterans National Foundation (DVNF) is offering a free webinar to veterans and veteran service officers who are looking for useful advice on how to go about translating military service, whether it is on their resume or in an interview. The speaker for this webinar is Mr. Christopher Kerney, Director of Marketing and Public Relations for www.militaryvetjobs.com, a site devoted to assisting with the many employment issues that veterans commonly face.
The webinar will be held on Wednesday, November 14, at 1pm ET. If you are a veteran looking for work, this webinar could be very valuable to you! We encourage you to register for the webinar, and don’t forget to spread the word to any other veterans who are looking for helpful information!

Thank you very much! And you are correct; it is not easy for most to understand the hardships that veterans face. We appreciate your support and following!

Yes, it will hopefully be up in our archived webinar section a couple weeks after the webinar occurs.
