In 2015, the Governor recommended and the Legislature approved the creation of a Veterans Coordinator position within the Division of Human Resource Management. The position was established to develop a statewide veteran hiring program and to support Veterans in connecting with employment opportunities within the State of Nevada.

The veteran hiring program provides individualized assistance to Veterans by:

• Identifying current State job openings that align with a Veteran’s skills, education, and experience.
• Answering questions regarding State employment and hiring processes.
• Advising and assisting Veterans in completing State job applications to accurately and effectively represent their qualifications.

In addition, program staff collaborates with nonprofit organizations and local, state, and federal agencies to strengthen connections between Veterans and available resources and services across Nevada. The veteran hiring program serves as a valuable State of Nevada resource, helping bridge the transition from military to civilian employment. Services are available to all individuals who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces, National Guard, or Reserves.

This is NOT a job placement service.

The State of Nevada recognizes and appreciates the sacrifices made by military & veteran spouses in support of our country and understands the unique challenges many spouses face while seeking employment.

As an extension of the veteran hiring program, individual assistance is also provided to military & veteran spouses in the following ways:

• Identifies current openings and State positions that match well with the spouse's skills, education, and experience.    
• Answers questions about state employment and its hiring processes.    
• Advises and assists spouses with completing state job applications to best represent themselves

Additionally, program staff will assist in connecting military & veteran spouses to local and nationwide resources that may be of value and benefit to the individual.
