About Volunteer Opportunities

Mock Interviews: Help a client prepare to successfully interview for employment opportunities. You’ll ask typical interview questions, as if you were conducting a real interview, gauge the client’s responses, and then provide honest and friendly feedback about what the client did well and what they might want to consider doing differently.

Career Counseling: Speak with clients about specific needs or interests, which are related to their job search. The conversation could include topics such as LinkedIn, networking strategies, an industry or position the client would like to learn more about, or career planning.

Guiding Federal Sector Applicants: Speak with a client who is interested in working for the federal government. You could provide advice on the USA Jobs portal, what a federal resume should look like, interviewing for a federal position and/or any general tips for federal applications.

Fundraising for Hire Heroes USA: We welcome and encourage you to plan, coordinate and conduct an independent special event in your local community with proceeds benefiting Hire Heroes USA. A special event can be anything: something small, such as asking for donations in lieu of gifts at a party or wedding; or a larger community event like a carnival, bike ride or sports tournament. If you’re not sure what to do, we can help you decide what kind of event might work for you. We are also happy to help promote your event through our website, e-newsletters and various social media channels.
