Looking to take the next step in your career? As today’s TopVet profile of Wells Fargo’s Brian Armstrong shows, veterans from the post-9/11 era are increasingly making a difference in the corporate world.

Brian served in the early days of the Iraq War, and is dedicating his professional and personal time to making sure military families find and pursue the right career opportunities in today’s workforce.

Last month, we profiled Naval Academy graduate Chris Perkins and his work helping veterans in the financial world. As a co-founder of Veterans on Wall Street (VOWS), he’s put together a consortium of competing banks to work together and advocate for hiring veterans in their businesses.

Veterans Advantage is also doing its part to help you get the next break in your career. Search for jobs and post your resume in our Jobs & Careers Network today. We have over 1,000 vet-friendly companies that have posted their jobs for our military community. Good luck in your search!
