Tesla at the top of your list! That's a great company. I have seen it do very well over the past couple of years (stock market wise). Thanks for the heads up and for the list of companies!

I found this TED talk featuring Elon Musk, the "mind behind Tesla," in case anyone is interested.

The mind behind Tesla, SpaceX, SolarCity ...

Entrepreneur Elon Musk is a man with many plans. The founder of PayPal, Tesla Motors and SpaceX sits down with TED curator Chris Anderson to share details about his visionary projects, which include a mass-marketed electric car, a solar energy leasing company and a fully reusable rocket.

Nice compilation Brandon. Glad to see Shell up there, and I am going to challenge our veteran affinity group (MilNet) to shoot out an invitation to join. If even a quarter of the 500+ current MilNet members at Shell did join, that would make a huge impact not just on our perception as military friendly, but increase the ability of those in transition to find old shipmates or just those with a common military background with which to network, gain information.

Seeing Tesla on this list reminded me of another way to show the military tie-in: note the companies that have sponsored DoD Fellows over the last few years. After last friday's MOJO event in DC, I met up with our DoD fellow from this past year, as well as the fellows from 3M, Miscrosoft, and a few others.

I would challenge any of the military recruiters that read this, or leadership of a company's veteran affinity group that rea this, to get the word out across your group about RallyPoint.

Awesome challenge Mike! I'd love to see the MilNet of Shell and others grow here as well. Great to see that you notice the untapped potential of these company pages from the employer perspective. 500 Shell veteran connections can turn into 5,000 and maybe 50,000 when you count the first order and second order connections your members will make inside RallyPoint. Please keep us posted!
Anyone else up for the LCDR Mike Roshaven challenge?
