Transitioning from Fort Snelling
The tools, the resources, and a Minnesota recruiting team that places veterans for free — from your last drill to your first civilian day.
Fort Snelling In Brief
Historic Fort Snelling anchors the Twin Cities' reserve-component footprint — Army Reserve and joint activities share the complex, with the Minneapolis VA Health Care System and Fort Snelling National Cemetery adjacent. For many Minnesota reservists it is the closest thing to a home installation.
Everything in the metro is a commute from here. If you are drilling at the complex and building a civilian career at the same time, our tools translate your military experience and our recruiters place you — free for candidates, permanently.
