VetSuccess API Web Service

As a registered employer on VetSuccess.gov, your company can post job vacancies automatically into the VetSuccess.gov database. Through our new VetSuccess API Web Service, employers are able to post jobs without having to complete manual entry or edits of job forms directly within VetSuccess.gov. The API Web Service reduces the time required for employers to post or edit jobs and enables nearly instant processing of additions or updates to an employer's list of opportunities within VetSuccess.gov.

With some initial set up (which may require integration assistance from your IT department) employers can integrate directly to the VetSuccess API Web Service.

If you have any questions regarding the VetSuccess.gov API Web Service please contact VetSuccess.gov technical support at VetSuccessTech.vbavaco@va.gov.
