When someone thinks of volunteering, they never think that other things may come from it. For instance, I was volunteering at the VA, but never even thought about applying to some of their open positions and utilizing my veterans points. In other words, volunteering can be rewarding but can create a network that people may never realize. Everyone volunteers at one time or another and you never know who you may be working with during any particular day nor do you know what these people do for a career.

For a veteran it is even more difficult then a civilian in interviews because you are discussing a topic which can sound like a foreign language to many hiring managers. When I first got out of the military, I was so used to titles and ranks and caught up with the formality and process of the interview, I lost touch with what I was really there for.
