If you went to a public library and asked a librarian for information on the military and/or veterans, you wouldn't receive 80 million results. That's Google. Rather, the librarian would provide you the top three to five credible and objective military and veteran publications to review.
Multiply that 10X and that's the power of the YouGotHeroes Military and Veteran Library. Instantly search current issues and archives of the top 40+ military and veteran publications and get the information you need, right now.
There are dozens of different ways that people identify their job titles. For example, a "senior vice president" at one company might be an SVP at another, or an EVP, or AVP. A "human resources director" at one company might be "director of talent" at another.
In addition, veterans identify themselves in many different ways. Some may say they are a "Marine Veteran." Some state that they served in the "U.S. Marines." Others proudly share that they served in the "Marine Corp."
With other search resources, you would need to know all of the different ways people identify themselves and run each search separately. In YouGotHeroes, all searches run in the background simultaneously and automatically.
When you click on a YouGotHeroes result, you go directly to the source database meaning, you're always accessing the latest information. By directing you to the source information versus scraping data, YouGotHeroes also stays on good terms with the information providers, as YouGotHeroes generates additional traffic to their sites.

We love hiring veterans, because we know they are hard workers, will show up on time, and will do a great job. I used to go through stacks of resumes looking for veterans who I would want to interview. Now I use YouGotHeroes and in seconds, I can find veterans in my community who are looking for work, or who I might want to recruit.
When I search for clients, if I can find a veteran owned business or a decision maker who is a veteran, because I'm a veteran, I can easily get past gate keepers and connect with a decision maker in a way that others can't. I use YouGotHeroes to find veteran owned business and marketing executives at companies who served.
I used YouGotHeroes to find a company that was hiring for my exact skill set. Then I found other veterans at the company who I contacted. They helped me get past HR and directly to the decision maker and I landed my dream job!
For some of our larger contracts, we are required to subcontract out to classified businesses, such as women-owned, minority-owned, or veteran-owned businesses. With YouGotHeroes, we can quickly find veteran-owned or veteran-run companies. We save a huge amount of time.
After I left the service, I got my MBA and then started my job search. Networking is everything. I used the Career Fair search to learn more about companies in my area. Then I used the Job Search feature to see who was hiring. With YouGotHeroes, I quickly found other Navy vets at the companies where I wanted to work. Every time I found someone who helped me land an interview and ultimately a great job.

No, YouGotHeroes is NOT a database. It is, however, a HUGE time saver.
YouGotHeroes makes finding information on U.S. veterans that is already online much easier. You could use a search engine like Google combined with other Websites to find the information that YouGotHeroes delivers. However, you would need to know how to craft complex mathematical Boolean equations and/or know the correct websites to even visit.
You could spend minutes - or more likely hours - trying to find information on your own, or you could use YouGotHeroes and find the right information in just seconds.
In YouGotHeroes's "Search By Title," and "Power Search" sections, the results pages feature tabs of all military branches and service academies that can be instantly clicked on for sorting purposes. Each tab represents dozens of unique LinkedIn searches (both includes and excludes to remove false positives).
Meaning, for example, in the Title Search section alone, each button represents more than 20 unique title searches, and combined with the results page tabs, would total more than 1,900 unique searches in other engines! Assuming you could conduct a search manually in 20 seconds, what you can do in YouGotHeroes in less than four seconds would otherwise take you 10+ hours.
Now, most people would certainly never spend hours searching, however, they would then miss a lot of results if they didn't (e.g., if you searched for "vice presidents" in other engines, you'd miss VPs, SVPs, AVPs, EVPs, etc. yet YouGotHeroes automatically searches for similar titles).
In addition, there are dozens of different ways that people identify themselves as military veterans (e.g., US Marines, Marine Corp., Marine Veteran, etc.). To capture all veterans in other search engines, you would need to know all of the different ways people identify themselves versus in YouGotHeroes, which runs all searches simultaneously and automatically.
Once you find someone who you'd like to connect with, you can reach out directly on LinkedIn. AND... use our powerful LeadLeaper Contact Info Plug-In to instantly find a person's contact information - you get 200 FREE contact information credits each month. We even have a system to help you determine a person's business email address.
A big advantage is YouGotHeroes does not limit industry searches to pre-defined classifications. For example, in most people search engines, there is no industry classification for "Internet of Things" yet there are tens of thousands of veterans who work in that industry. As odd as this is, some search engines do not even have an industry search for "manufacturing" (there are millions of veterans working in manufacturing).
YouGotHeroes combines multiple databases that list veteran-owned businesses meaning it's very comprehensive, and most likely one of the most comprehensive search engines for veteran-owned businesses in the world.
YouGotHeroes is not a list building tool. You can use YouGotHeroes to locate veterans and then contact them via their online profiles or other means that they provide.
If you're looking for a pure list-building database or another tool to more easily access a person's contact information, we recommend purchasing a subscription to LinkedIn Premium or other list-building services such as Relevate.ai.
No. Some people don't have an online presence. Others inadvertently, or on purpose, don't make their online information publicly available. However, to date there are more than 81 million veterans who are searchable via YouGotHeroes, so we're sure you'll find some great results.
With any online search, there is no guarantee that the information is accurate or current. However, YouGotHeroes has built-in-logic that runs in the background and it attempts to filter out results from non-reputable sources.
YouGotHeroes uses complex Boolean algorithms that looks for combinations of words that lead the system to believe that a person is a veteran. Sometimes those words do appear on a person's online profile, just not in the correct order. That is known as a false-positive. In addition, just like any online search, sometimes odd results appear for no apparent reason. Yet hopefully YouGotHeroes does a good enough job that 85%+ of the results are truly individuals who fit your search criteria.
YouGotHeroes looks for combinations of words on a person's online profile to determine if someone a veteran. Please contact us and we are happy to share what words you might want to put on your profile, so you do appear. In addition, some people inadvertently, or on purpose, don't make their profiles publicly available. For those people, their names will not appear in results.
