Hi I'm author Scott Vedder
I need your support to help at least 2000 military veterans
transitioning service members and their families on their next important mission to
get a great new job in the civilian sector
You can help for less than five dollars I'm a fortune 100
recruiter and a best-selling author I've already helped thousands of people
across the country
find great new carerrs I've been recognized by the white house
the pentagon and others as a resume expert more about that later
now I'm releasing signs of a great resume
veterans edition a new version of my best-selling book
specifically designed to help veterans transitioning service members and their
families
explain and quantify their military experience on a resume
and get a great new job in the civilian sector
will you pledge five dollars to help me send
at least 2,000 copies of signs of a great resume
veterans edition to veterans transitioning service members
and their families? if we meet our goal ten thousand dollars
the publisher will send two thousand books directly to veterans
service organizations and family readiness and support
groups across the country will you help them? the cost of each
book is only five dollars that means printed and shipped
hot off the press and into the hands of veterans
transitioning service members and military spouses
and the books are printed right here in the United States
so you're supporting American jobs too our nation's veterans face a serious
problem the unemployment rate for veterans is often higher than the
national average and that's just not fair
veterans tell me they have trouble finding great jobs because there's no
clear resources to explain quantify military
experience on their resumes unemployment is
also a serious problem for family members a recent study shows
about ninety percent military spouses field they are
underemployed working jobs below the experience level
education or both that's in part because military spouses
often don't have a consistent employment history after moving from base to base
all over the world signs a great resume
veterans edition is the resource they need to solve these problems together
we can help choose your contribution now
on our indiegogo campaign site I'm also inspired
by my family's own proud military service my grandfather Jack was an army medic in
the Philippines during World War Two
and my father warren served in the Army National Guard when their service
careers ended
there wasn't a resource that helped them get to work in the civilian sector
veterans today tell me that problem is still
very real and that's just wrong our service members deserve better
and can use our help do you agree? well
you're not the only one when I met First Lady Michelle Obama
at the Veteran' Institute she agreed with me too and I was extended
personal invitation to a meeting at the white house take a look
Attention!
I'm author Scott Vedder and I'm here on the steps of our nation's Capitol on a very important mission and that's
to help veterans get back to work this whole journey started
First Lady Michelle Obama at the veterans Institute Orlando she
explained that it's important for veterans to quantify their experience on their
resumes
and there's no better way to do that than signs a great resume
Thanks for telling them to be specific on their resumes
and quantify their experience thank you for everything
you do thank you
thanks guys
yesterday I had an amazing meeting in the Office of the First Lady at the White House
followed by a great meeting at the pentagon in the Office of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
about helping veterans get to work using the signs of a
great resume I'm standing here on the National Mall
surrounded by tributes to the great men and women who proudly served our country
