Introduction

The e-VETS Resource Advisor assists veterans preparing to enter the job market. It includes information on a broad range of topics, such as job search tools and tips, employment openings, career assessment, education and training, and benefits and special services available to veterans.

The e-VETS Resource Advisor was created to help veterans and their family members sort through the vast amount of information available on the Internet. Based on your personal profile and/or the various services you select, the e-VETS Resource Advisor will provide a list of Web site links most relevant to your specific needs and interests.

The e-VETS Resource Advisor is one of several elaws Advisors developed by the US Department of Labor to help employees and employers understand their rights and responsibilities under numerous Federal employment laws. The e-VETS Resource Advisor has two sections: General Services and Personal Profile. You are encouraged to use both sections to achieve the best results.
