Finding the right job resources can feel overwhelming after leaving the military. I’ve been looking into workshops and networking events specifically for veterans. If anyone has suggestions or experiences to share, I’d love to hear what worked for you.
I totally get it — finding the right resources can be tough. I attended a veterans’ networking event last month that was super helpful; they even paired me with a mentor who had a background in my field. As you look into workshops, check out some local veteran support groups — they often have great leads on events and job fairs.
, this drives me nuts too; i found a workshop that focused on resume building for veterans, and it was a game changer for me… They also had a networking segment where I met some really helpful folks — definitely check to see if there are any around you. @janice_hill60 mentioned they’d paired with a mentor, which is something that worked wonders for me as well.
Finding the right resources can be like trying to find a needle in a haystack — sometimes you just need a flashlight. I attended a resume workshop with @VetCareerHelp that focused on us veterans specifically; it made a world of difference. Networking really gave me the boost I needed, so don’t underestimate those events.
