HR managers help VA recruit and retain top talent so we can fulfill our mission of providing superior health care to millions of Veterans

One of our highest priorities at VA is recruiting and retaining top talent so we can fulfill our mission of providing superior health care to millions of Veterans. But we can’t do that without the help of skilled and dedicated human resources (HR) professionals.

HR managers are one of the most sought-after nonclinical positions at VA, with nearly one in four VA health care systems indicating they need to recruit and hire more staff in this position. The occupation has increased by nearly 8% over the last three years and is expected to continue growing.

“VA service begins with VA people. HR managers help ensure that we attract, employ and retain the best and most qualified people, so that we can continue to provide the highest level of care to Veterans across the country,” said Darren Sherrard, associate director of recruitment marketing.

Hiring of HR managers has been expedited and streamlined under the Direct Hire Authority.
