VA for Vets, an outstanding new program to help Veterans find appropriate careers at the Department of Veterans Affairs, officially launched on Veterans Day. VA for Vets is a new program that takes a high-tech and high-touch approach to recruiting, hiring, retaining, and reintegrating Veterans into the VA workforce.
As part of its high-tech solution, the program offers state of the art online tools for Veterans as they seek employment or look to further career development opportunities.
The online Career Center includes: a military skills translator that translates military skills into civilian language; a resume builder that tailors Veterans' resumes so they can more easily compete for open positions in VA; and avatar-based technology that connects deployed service members back to VA during their operational missions.
The high-touch solution comes in the form of career and reintegration coaches who are readily available to help Veterans and service members take full advantage of opportunities offered through the career center or to ensure a seamless transition into the VA workforce.

Good Luck!!
