About Us

Mission Statement

To create an ecosystem through targeted outreach, dedicated to expanding employment opportunities for military members (past and present) and their families. Provide customized services, tailored to individual needs, leading to positive career outcomes.

Our Values

A big part of what sets VetJobs apart is its core values, which have been forged through its leaders’, employees’, and contractors’ service to their country.

Those values include:

Integrity:

We don’t accept funding from any branches of the Military or the Government; our singular allegiance is to the job seekers we serve.

Respect:

We have the deepest respect for those who are serving, have served, and surround those who have served; that reverence guides every decision we make.

Commitment:

We don’t think it’s enough to just help a veteran or spouse get a job. Nobody goes deeper, or stays involved longer, to help military-affiliated job seekers attain a rewarding career.

Focus:

We have never strayed from our founding charter. If it doesn’t help active duty military, veterans or military spouses connect with a high-paying career, we won’t do it.

Efficiency:

We are tirelessly devoted to ensuring every penny we spend advances our mission. Deloitte audits show that 96 cents on the dollar goes to that mission.

Who We Are

Over the past 20 years, VetJobs has placed over 109,000 military veterans, retirees, transitioning members, National Guardsmen, reservists, and spouses into rewarding industry-leading careers. To date, over 65,000 registrants have also completed VetJobs’ online training courses.

VetJobs is a 501(C)(3) nonprofit and, as such, prides itself on providing its services to its military-affiliated employment/training candidates and partner employers completely free of charge. VetJobs operates solely on the generosity of its grantors and donors.

Notably, VetJobs’ hiring numbers are verified every two years by a third-party Deloitte audit as part of its continuing transparency and assurance pledge to the Call of Duty Endowment.

VetJobs Founder, Deb Kloeppel, sums it up best:
“Military-affiliated job seekers do not come to us for a job. They come to us because we uniquely understand if you want to have sustainable financial security, you must build marketable career skills. We provide these skills free of charge, because for us, this isn’t a one-time placement transaction, it is a long-term partnership. We take pride in our Veterans because we ARE Veterans and military spouses.”

What We Do & How We Do It

VetJobs has a successful and proven method for ensuring its job seekers connect with the career opportunities they deserve.

This approach consists of three parts: people, technology and education.

People

The VetJobs staff consists of highly educated veterans and military spouses who get to know job seekers on a personal level. They work hard to understand each candidate’s military service, skills, and how that experience may translate to today’s job market. The VetJobs team provides personal high-touch job placement support, leveraging the organization’s relationships with hundreds of leading national employers.

Technology

The VetJobs talent management system, Infinite BrassRing, allows staff members to thoroughly and efficiently support the needs of each candidate and partner employer. Additionally, VetJobs ongoing relationship with Direct Employers provides access to their world-class technology backbone which contains millions of diverse career opportunities.

Education

For candidates who need extra support, VetJobs has developed top-notch training courses, educational tools, career development resources, and mentoring services. The VetJobs training team includes professionals who have developed curricula for some of America’s top learning institutions. They work closely with each job seeker to ensure they are thoroughly prepared to get the job they deserve.

Our History

The VetJobs family had humble beginnings — founded with $323, in military housing, at the outset of the Iraq War. When Deb Kloeppel, a successful entrepreneur and senior executive at American Airlines, left her position to PCS overseas, she realized there was a need to better support the career aspirations of military spouses. She saw women and men who were accomplished, highly trained and highly educated, but suddenly found themselves living someplace very far away — because of their devotion to family and country. So, in 2004, Military Spouse Corporate Career Network (MSCCN) was born.

MSCCN quickly grew to become the premiere job placement and career development facilitator for military spouses and family members. It was so successful that it inspired Deb and her husband, Rear Admiral Dan Kloeppel (U.S. Navy, ret.), to co-found CASY: Corporate America Supports You. Armed with a letter of need from the Army National Guard and startup money from DirectEmployers, CASY was chartered in 2010, with the mission of providing free employment readiness, vocational training and one-on-one job placement services for National Guard, Reserves, transitioning service members and veterans of all branches of service. RADM Kloeppel — after a 36-year military career, plus 36 years as a commercial airline pilot — has gained a unique perspective on how to best support service members transitioning to the civilian workplace.

From just under 500 job placements its first year, CASY quickly grew to become a powerhouse in helping military-affiliated job seekers connect to high paying, rewarding careers. By 2019, CASY and MSCCN had surpassed their 57,000th verified hired. It was at this point, with the financial help of Swift Transporation, that the opportunity emerged to acquire VetJobs.com, the best-known, online military job board. One immediate impact was the addition of thousands of new applicants, now receiving our one-on-one help. With the addition of VetJobs, CASY and MSCCN had their most successful year ever in 2019, helping nearly 9,200 active duty service members, veterans, and military spouses connect to career opportunities.

In 2020, the VetJobs family welcomed militaryspousejobs.org — powered by MSCCN, now sitting alongside vetjobs.org, replacing casy.us and msccn.org.

MilitarySpouseJobs.org provides the same unparalleled career placement and advancement services to military spouses, caregivers, and military family members that MSCCN has delivered for years, as these onboarding gateways all lead to our same IBM technology, DirectEmployers Jobs, and our one-on-one assistance.

These strategic additions paid off and 2020 was a banner year for the organizations, we not only surpassed more than 10,000 verified job placements in a single year we also crested 65,000 lifetime job placements in all making us the largest and most effective organization in the United States.

We kicked off 2024 by reaching 100,000 verified hires and celebrating 20 years of supporting our military community.
