Saint Petersburg, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 05/13/2014 --When transitioning American veterans begin their efforts to re-enter the civilian work force, they have an abundance of employment websites to choose from. Recently, however, one destination, WeHireHeroes.US, was recently named "Best Veterans' Job Site on the Internet" - and a big reason is its robust, newly improved, user-friendly Resource Center.

The veterans' employment advocate team at WeHireHeroes.US realized early on that it would take more than just another long list of job openings to get transitioning veterans to put them among their list of "must-have" job sites, and for counselors, recruiters, and coaches to recommend the site to their constituents. As veterans themselves, they quickly identified a need that wasn't being filled by their competition - an easy to use, centralized collection of badly needed veterans' resources.

"There's no shortage of job boards online trying to grab veterans' attention", says Lance T. Walker, Managing Director for WeHireHeroes.US. "The problem is, the vast majority are operating in an isolated manner, separate from the support community - and most aren't even veteran-owned. There is a strong temptation for some in the advertising world to view America's veterans as just another segment to be marketed to.

For us, it's much different. To us, this work is a mission, a covenant between ourselves and our fellow veterans. It's a boots-on-the-ground kind of commitment to assisting our men and women in uniform as they rejoin the civilian mainstream. That means more than just giving them a list of available jobs; it also means connecting them with information and resources they need to prepare themselves to overcome the inevitable obstacles and successfully conquer the challenges they face."

"It's one of the main ways we keep job seekers coming back - and recently, it's helped us land the name 'Best Veterans' Job Site on the Internet.
