LinkedIn is providing free services to Veterans

As part of LinkedIn's commitment to helping Veterans connect with available jobs across America, LinkedIn offers U.S. service members and Veterans a free one-year Job Seeker subscription.


111 Links to information on Veterans benefits and how to file/ask for them

Below are web-sites that provide information on Veterans benefits and how to file/ask for them. Accordingly, there are many sites that explain how to obtain books, military/medical records, information and how to appeal a denied claim with the VA. Please pass this information on to every Veteran you know. Nearly 100% of this information is free and available for all veterans, the only catch is: you have to ask for it, because they won't tell you about a specific benefit unless you ask for it. You need to know what questions to ask so the right doors open for you and then be ready to have an advocate who is willing to work with and for you, stay in the process, and press for your rights and your best interests.

Google is looking for people who thrive in a changing environment with the autonomy to get a job done without specific directions of "how."  Being resourceful and thinking on your feet is a must. If you like to travel and the challenge and freedom of having to solve projects within certain periods of time, then this is the job for you. You should be able to focus on the details of the work in a changing environment.
