You can get specialized help finding work at South Dakota Job Service offices: intensive services for disabled veterans, in-person orientation sessions, job search information, resume and cover letter help, interview preparation, eligibility checks for veteran training programs, information on applying for federal, state, county and city jobs, help for newly separated or transitioning service members, a military-to-civilian skills crosswalk and direct referrals to job openings. Veterans get priority of service at local offices and in training programs. Spouses and surviving spouses also qualify when the veteran died of a service-connected condition, has a total and permanent service-connected disability, or the service member has been listed as missing in action or a prisoner of war for 90 days or more.
Go to your nearest South Dakota Job Service office and tell them you are a veteran or an eligible spouse.
Your DD214 to establish veteran status and priority of service, your VA disability documentation if you are claiming as a disabled veteran, and proof of your relationship to the veteran if you are claiming as a spouse.
