🎆 It's National Hire A Veteran Day! 🎆 If you didn't know, that is EVERYDAY at Still Serving Veterans.

Our team of Veterans lives and breaths getting fellow Veterans jobs, but more importantly, getting their clients into the right job.

During our process, Veterans don't just get a resume and a path to a better career, they get someone who has their back before, during and after the dream job comes.

Happy 249th Birthday to the U.S. Army! 🎉🎉

💪Older than the nation it defends, the U.S. Army has made a difference in the history and founding of America. This year we are celebrating how America’s Army has challenged, empowered and equipped our Soldiers, because “Be All You Can Be” is more than just a slogan, it's the Army way of life.

See ways you can celebrate:

Women Veterans Recognition Day is not a separate Veterans Day for women. The day, celebrated yearly on June 12, recognizes, honors and remembers the signing of the Women’s Armed Services Integration Act (pub.L. 80–625, 62 Stat. 356), allowing women the right to permanently serve in the regular armed forces.
