Work For VA

Why VA? As a Veteran, you understand the perspectives of the Veterans who have earned the benefits and health services that VA provides.

Continue serving your nation.

You served an invaluable role in the military, preserving our nation’s freedom. You can continue your public service by helping Veterans and their families secure the best care possible.

Work with fellow Veterans.

You will work with and for men and women who have worn the uniform and share your commitment. More than 100,000 Veterans come to work at VA every day, with the same mission: to care for Veterans and their families.

Enjoy meaningful and fulfilling work.

As a Veteran, you bring unique insight and experience that is vital to our ability to deliver world-class services to Veterans and their families.

Find Support for Disabled Veterans.

Over 10 percent of VA employees are Veterans with disabilities. VA works hard to quickly identify and address any barriers to ensure equal employment and opportunities for Veterans. Veterans with service-connected disabilities can find resources like vocational counseling, evaluation and rehabilitation services, independent living opportunities and job training through the Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment (VR&E) program.
