Opportunities for Veterans

The Department of Defense (DoD) is honored to have veterans join our civilian workforce. In fact, DoD is the nation's number one employer of veterans-you can continue to serve the defense mission with the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard or any one of the many other defense agencies. DoD affords preference in employment to eligible veterans, along with world-class benefits, opportunities for personal and professional growth, travel, and advancement. We invite our nation's veterans to become part of our rich and proud tradition of civilian service.
