Hear how VetCentral supports veteran representatives across the country, straight from an Indiana-based disabled veterans outreach program specialist; how the Partner Relationship Manager (PRM) guides outreach efforts to organizations serving veterans, transitioning servicemembers and spouses; and finally, insights from United Rentals on how their veteran-focused career site has created a unique candidate experience for veterans.
