Local veterans
The Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos metro is home to 108,817 veterans, 5.7% of its adult civilian population (Census ACS 2020-2024). Unemployment in the metro was 4.0% in July 2026, up from 3.6% a year earlier (BLS LAUS, preliminary).

Preparation
What employers with veteran hiring programs ask for, and what to have ready before your interview.
Have it on hand, or the dates and character of service if you do not. Employers with veteran programs ask for it at the offer stage, and some at the interview.
Translate the title and the responsibilities: people managed, budgets held, equipment run, certifications earned. The recruiter may not know the code.
If you hold or held a clearance, say so and give the level and date. For several employers here it moves you to the top of the list.
Veteran employee groups, SkillBridge, tuition support, and how they credit military experience for pay grade. The answers decide whether the offer is right for you.
Your confirmation says which. For video, a quiet space, a charged device, and a camera test five minutes before. For in person, the address and parking are in the confirmation; arrive ten minutes early. For phone, a number you can answer at the confirmed time.
