LEESBURG, Va. - Feb. 18, 2015 - PRLog -- Following their award for the “Top-Rated Nonprofit” in 2014 by GreatNonProfits.com (http://greatnonprofits.org/org/hire-our-heroes), and  2014 We Serve Award (http://www.weserveawards.org/awards/) winner, Hire Our Heroes (HOH) has announced their new online veteran job board. The site offers veterans and employers a free way to search and post jobs. To better support their relentless efforts to connect veterans with hiring businesses, employers have access to unlimited job postings, free of charge.

Through the support of the non-profit HOH works closely with veterans daily, helping to re-write their resumes and build their brand on social media. The goal is that they can become more successful in finding their next career opportunity.

“As veterans ourselves, we are proud of the ability to offer a means of support in this way, and are excited to be providing a place where veterans can connect with employers who are specifically looking to hire veterans,” comments HOH Founder, Dan Caporale.

Caporale was a Platoon Sergeant and Satellite Communications Specialist, who spent 8 years in the United States Marine Corps. He founded Hire Our Heroes in 2012 following his years in the Marine Corps., along with Tim Kirk and Paul Magness, they are now recognized as leaders in efforts for today's transitioning veterans.

This online job board comes at a pivotal time for veterans as ‘the unemployment rate for veterans aged 18-24 is a staggering at 20.5%. On top of that, there are over 10 million veterans, including 1.6 million service-disabled veterans, who are currently out of the labor force,’ as noted on The Departments of Labor (http://www.dol.gov/_sec/media/congress/20130801_Kelly.htm) by Assistant Secretary for Veterans' Employment and Training Service, Keith Kelly.

As troops begin to come home from Afghanistan and the United States continues to downsize their military forces, the DOL expects the population of veterans to increase by as many as 200,000 each year over the next five years. Knowing this, Hire Our Heroes is determined to provide secure opportunities for employment where the veteran population can cultivate their talents, traits, and attitudes for years to come with the assistance of the job board platform.
