I am looking for career advancement and am at a crossroads on whether to pursue a continued civilian career or to attempt to go active duty. What are your recent experiences with gaining civilian employment through social networking on this site?

I found a civilian (GS) position at a reserve base close to home thanks to RallyPoint.

RallyPoint is adding new employers on a weekly basis, as well as more tools for employers to find and connect with members directly. Below is an example of a success story highlighted earlier this year. Good luck with the search!<div><br></div><div>http://blog.rallypoint.com/2014/01/us-army-veteran-nails-prominent-role-at.html <br></div><div class="pta-link-card"><div class="pta-link-card-picture"><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-aUnXimHArfs/UulCYUqbBMI/AAAAAAAABK8/S8s2Wa2vMdo/s72-c/rinse2.JPG"></div><div class="pta-link-card-content"><div class="pta-link-card-title"><a target="_blank" href="http://blog.rallypoint.com/2014/01/us-army-veteran-nails-prominent-role-at.html">US Army Veteran Nails Prominent Role at San Francisco Startup | RallyPoint.com</a></div><div class="pta-link-card-description">Promising San Francisco startup hires Army veteran through RallyPoint.</div></div><div style="clear:both"></div><div class="pta-box-hide"><i class="icon-remove"></i></div></div>

Awesome story. Hoping to achieve similar success as I transition over the next year. I have already gained some good contacts via RallyPoint...was able to network with Joseph Wong and Paul Turevon on possibly becoming a part of the Time Warner Cable family.

Nathan - Yinon posted a great blog about one of our RallyPoint members becoming the director of operations at a very successful startup company after applying on our Career Corner. My advice would be to never stop networking with fellow veterans in industry. You never know when a door might be opened for you.
