Looking over the Civilian Employment tab on RP, I see very little areas of real interest. Though, the offered positions are better than none, I believe there are many better positions available to Veterans. By expanding the employment opportunities offered to Veterans and those looking to transition out of the military, RallyPoint could become a much more valuable resource. Reaching out to higher level companies for employment listings and allowing them to post positions on RallyPoint could be mutually beneficial in a major way. veterans and Active Duty could see what positions are available and employers could see exactly who is available and the caliber of employee they are getting. How many of you would like to see higher level employment opportunities such as Lockheed Martin, SPAWAR, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, DoD, etc?

ENS (Join to see) There are some big projects in motion on the RallyPoint client side and we are in touch with many of the names you listed above. Also, remember that job postings are just one way to use RP to find open roles. We have 10K+ employers represented by Vets here. Search Google, Tesla, Boeing, Amazon, SpaceX and many others...you'll see we have vets working at all these world class companies. Networking with these vets will help your chances exponentially more than a job posting.

In the meantime, here is just a sample of major companies posting jobs on RallyPoint today: Ball Aerospace, Shell, Ford, The Home Depot, Premise Health, Sallyport & Time Warner Cable. Stay tuned for many more in the future.

I think it could be very beneficial but what types of employment opportunities would be offered? Would there be things for say Nursing? Or would it be business related? Everything?? How would such a beast of a side mission would that actually be? That could almost be it's own website.

I have a job in Tennessee. I never leave one without another lined up. But thank you very much for the opportunity. I just like the idea of helping vets anyway we can.
