A new social media platform designed specifically to help military veterans and their spouses find the jobs they really want is now available. 

Offered by non-profit Vouch4Vets.org, VetStory gives job seekers the ability to quickly and easily invite advocates to provide short video referrals that can be embedded and shared with potential employers.

“Video is key to understanding the veterans’ fit in the private sector," said Vouch4Vets.org founder David Brennan.

The San Ramon, California based nonprofit is partnering with leading companies throughout the United States, as well as veteran services organizations, to advocate for the military community in a competitive hiring market.

To get started, veterans and spouses should go to Vouch4Vets.org, create a profile and invite advocates to create a short video referral.

Once the video referral is complete, veteran job seekers will be able to directly share and embed referrals into their resume, as well as share their profile with global companies that have partnered with the non-profit.
