Atlanta, GA, September 15, 2005 – VetJobs (www.vetjobs.com), the nation’s leading military-related Internet job board exclusively endorsed by the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States (VFW), is permitting any company with jobs available in the areas affected by hurricane Katrina to post jobs for free for the next 90 days! VetJobs, in conjunction with the VFW, wants to assist all those individuals who are displaced by the hurricane and who need employment. The VetJobs jobs database is open to anyone who wants to apply to the jobs posted by hundreds of employers. The free job postings are for jobs physically located in southern Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and the affected areas in the panhandle of Florida.

“We are very pleased to make the services of VetJobs available to employers and those individuals seeking employment so the two can connect and we can get people back to work.” said VetJobs President Ted Daywalt. “The sooner we can get people back to work, the sooner the area will recover. And the areas will recover. When one looks at what happened in Charleston after Hugo and south Florida after Andrew, there was a building boom, but it takes awhile for the recovery to start. By making the services of VetJobs available to employers with jobs in the area we can be a part of the recovery process. ”

VFW Commander-in-Chief James R. Mueller applauds VetJobs for reaching out to employers to hire veterans and individuals affected by Hurricane Katrina. The VFW recognizes and appreciates those employers that are involved with this initiative.
