While I am no longer in the job market, LinkedIn is a valuable resource that is severely limited with the basic version. This is a great idea, the VA should pay for it permanently.

I am a Veteran and have provided proof to get the upgrade for 1 year. Yet I’m not believing because of all the messages asking me for 1 month

So cool! I've been using LinkedIn for years, but can't afford the premium fee. Now I get to check out what I've been missing!

My favorite feature is connecting with former co-workers, especially if they are connected to someone at a company who posts a job!

LinkedIn is a great system for veterans. I found my new job through them. Great resources and always learning something new. LinkedIn definitely keeps you informed and updated. Should be a military and veteran funded system. Thanks!

While I am not in the job market, LinkedIn offers valuable networking resources beneficial to both the individual and industry. I would be pleased to contribute my professional knowledge and expertise to these networks. VA should make this limited one year benefit permanent to all Service Connected veterans.
