Randy Snider, VA intermediate care technician
When Air Force Veteran Randy Snider knew that administration wasn't for him, he didn't have to search far for the right fit. Through our Supporting Community, Outpatient, Urgent Care, and Telehealth Services (SCOUTS) program, he quickly made the jump to a rewarding role in direct patient care.
"I've had tons of support and not just with my direct supervisors," Snider said. "I have the freedom to explore different care areas in service of Veterans."
Learn about his hiring journey, his current position, and how you can follow in his footsteps on your way to VA.
