President Obama Mentions the National Resource Directory's Veterans Job Bank in Speech

In his speech on November 7, 2011, President Barack Obama listed the National Resource Directory's Veterans Job Bank as an important tool to support his jobs for Veterans initiative.  According to the White House's Joining Forces website (http://www.whitehouse.gov/joiningforces/resources):

"The Veterans Job Bank connects unemployed veterans to job openings with companies that want to hire them. The Obama Administration partnered with leading job search companies to create a new, easy to use online service that enables employers to "tag" job postings for veterans. It launched with more than 500,000 job listings, a number that will continue growing as more companies tag the job postings on their own websites and add them to the Veterans Job Bank."
