Looking for employment is a daunting task. Frequently, a Veteran’s military training and experience does not easily translate to fit the requirements that a civilian company seeks. There are many resources offered by the Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs (MDVA) and other community organizations to assist Veterans through a job search.
MDVA offers meaningful, rewarding careers in skilled trades, healthcare, professional and administration fields, and much more – all with competitive salaries and great State of Minnesota benefits. At MDVA, we are confident you will find a career path that is diverse, team-oriented and focused on making a real difference serving Minnesota Veterans and their families.
We are currently hiring for healthcare and various other support roles for our Minnesota State Veterans Homes located throughout the state. To learn more about MDVA jobs, how to apply and Human Resources contacts, visit Work for MDVA.
We are a Veteran-friendly employer committed to a policy of Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO), and maintain an Affirmative Action plan. While we are a Veteran-friendly employer, we also hire non-Veterans as well. Sign-up for the MDVA Jobs Bulletin e-newsletter to receive our job postings and job search tips.
MDVA partners with the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED) to support Veterans as they put their military skills to work in a new career. We recommend Veterans connect with their local Veteran Employment Representative because they are aware of businesses looking to hire Veterans. You can find your representative and other resources on the CareerForce website.
Hiring Minnesota Veterans is good for business; they possess qualities such as work ethic, discipline, teamwork, and reliability, just to name a few. They are ready for their next mission back home in large companies and small businesses across Minnesota. If you are looking for a smart, dependable employee – look to a Veteran.
