What’s the best way to learn about a place to work? From the people who work there!
When we welcome special guests to “Talk About It Tuesday” every Tuesday at noon ET on LinkedIn Live, we want to know what brought them to VA and what it means to them to spend each day serving Veterans.
Recently, we welcomed:
- Cheryl Schmitz, Office of Geriatrics and Extended Care deputy executive director
- Jennifer Silva, national social work program manager
- Matt Luitjohan, recreational therapist
Each of our guests had their own unique path that brought them to VA, just like every one of our employees. However, in speaking with these three professionals, we learned that they all share an interest in being of service.
We also learned the qualities that you’ll find in so many of our employees, the things that make applicants stand out and show our recruiters that you know what working at VA means not just to you, but to the Veterans we care for.
