Just wondering if any actually prefer vets rather than just saying they do.. I'm already in the process with a couple of them, but looking to see if maybe I've already applied with them. I'm local too, not someone trying to relocate to an area already low on jobs. Don't respond if you're in the process too and THINK you know what you're talking about, prefer responses from folks already working. Tango

I'm not from Florida but I spent many years overseeing the hiring process with two different agencies.
An applicant's worth to us was measured by how high he scored on the written and oral exams we administered. They measured his ability to perform the duties of the job he was seeking. Applicants were then hired in the order of their combined test scores (highest first, next highest second, etc.) Veterans had three extra points added to their final score solely as a reward for their military service and not because their experience in the military meant they brought anything extra to the table. You could only use your veteran's credit once on our agency. After that, you could never claim it again in promotionals or if you tested for another job.
In short, it didn't make you more desirable, it just got you extra points on your score. I believe you will find most agencies are like that.Going too far is half the pleasure of not getting anywhere
