Career Corner - Civilian Employment Issues?

SPC Christopher Seitler — Mon, 31 Mar 2014 15:51:16 -0400

I have been attempting to locate defense/government jobs on the Career Corner section of this website. I have an issue getting anything to pop up, other than the 5 "preferred" companies.

I have tried many different combinations, but I have seen nothing besides those five companies being listed. Is there a "submit" feature that is not showing up, or is the system simply still buggy at this moment?

If anyone has any information or help, please let me know. I'm about to graduated soon, and I really need to get the next mission in my life planned so I have the ability to start working on a route of attack.

While this site is headed in the right direction, some areas I would imagine are not as fully functional as they would like them to be. For job planning I would recommend checking many sources usa jobs, resume posting sites, etc.... Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Best of luck!

Chris,

Great questions. To see a past discussion relating to this topic, see attached. You will also see we have many more postings than just the 4. Play with filter and select all options to see the employers we currently have signed on. There are currently no government jobs posted to the career corner, but stay posted because we do plan to get there soon. You'll also note from the past discussion that we have some heavy hitting employers signing in this week. Please use the feedback loop or contact me if you have any other issues. Our goal is to open as many doors for you as possible!

Cheers,

Brandon

You can apply directly with some of the companies through the links next to the company name. Those without links, you'll need to go direct to the company career pages.

Also, I encourage you to login to your account here,

Additionally you can search over 600,000 jobs posted on the site, and you can set-up search agents that deliver new jobs to you each day that would fit what you're interested in as over 4,000 companies post new jobs.
