Priority of Service for Veterans and Eligible Spouses for New Hampshire Employment Security Programs

New Hampshire Employment Security

Priority access to state workforce programs, plus a 24 hour head start on Job Match System postings

You are served ahead of non-veterans at New Hampshire Employment Security for employment, training and placement in every state workforce program funded by the Department of Labor. That means you get a service earlier than others, or instead of others when resources are limited. Staff help with resumes and cover letters, career counselling, job searches, translating military experience into civilian qualifications, interview practice, labour market information, referrals and apprenticeships, and jobs posted on the NHES Job Match System are held 24 hours for veterans to see first.
