How INvets Freed Its Team to Place More Indiana Veterans
For the team at INvets, every job placement is personal. The Indiana nonprofit exists to connect transitioning service members, veterans, and military spouses with meaningful careers across the Hoosier State. The work is part data, part logistics, and almost entirely human: understanding where a veteran has been, where they want to go, and which Indiana employer is the right next step. INvets does this at scale, for veterans and military spouses across the entire state. Maintaining the human element of placements at that scale is critical.
The Opportunity: More Time for the Human Work
Serving veterans across an entire state is a big job, and INvets does it well. But keeping a statewide view of job openings current takes real, ongoing effort. Tracking employers, finding new openings, and keeping listings fresh is hands-on work, and the more veterans and employers INvets serves, the more of that upkeep there is to do. The scale of their impact is precisely what made the manual maintenance so demanding.
That upkeep was time the team would rather invest in people. Every hour spent maintaining job data was an hour not spent on what INvets exists to do: guide veterans through transition and connect them to the right Indiana employers. The goal was simple: keep the statewide job picture comprehensive and current, while giving the team room to pour their energy into the relationships at the heart of their mission.
The Solution: Automate the Busywork, Free the Team
Rollie automates the job and company data layer entirely. Previously, knowing which jobs even existed meant depending on employers to self-report their openings, then maintaining those listings by hand, a cycle that left gaps whenever an employer didn't think to share a role. Rollie removes that dependency. It continuously discovers and refreshes relevant, up-to-date openings on its own, pulling directly from employer sources rather than waiting on manual submissions or recycling stale national listings. INvets gets a complete, current picture of statewide opportunities without anyone having to chase them down.
On top of that live data sits Rollie’s job seeker dashboard, the tool that changed how the INvets team works day to day. Today, INvets manages close to 900 veterans inside Rollie. The dashboard gives them a single, organized view of the people they serve and the opportunities that fit them, so matching a veteran to the right role becomes automatic.
There’s a second beneficiary, too. Many Indiana employers face critical talent shortages, yet struggle to access, interpret, or compete for military talent. A live, comprehensive view of openings across the state lets INvets bridge that gap, aligning a veteran’s skills and experience with the employers who need them most.
The Results: A Team Focused on People
The impact showed up where it matters most. With job data maintained automatically and the seeker dashboard doing the organizing, the INvets team is able to direct it’s energy toward placements.
Today, INvets manages close to 900 veterans in Rollie, with a single, current view of statewide opportunities and the people who fit them. The result is a team spending its time on relationships and matches instead of maintenance, and getting more done because of it.

Hours reclaimed from manual data upkeep and redirected to serving veterans directly
“At INvets, our mission is to connect veterans and their spouses with meaningful career opportunities across Indiana. Rollie gives our team a dynamic and comprehensive view of active job opportunities throughout the state, allowing us to better align veterans’ skills and experience with Indiana employers; many of whom face critical talent shortages, but struggle to access, interpret or compete for military talent. By reducing the manual work involved in maintaining job listings, our team can spend more time focused on building relationships, supporting veterans and their spouses, and helping Indiana employers connect with exceptional talent.”

A Match Made for the Mission
The best technology disappears into the work. For INvets, Rollie isn’t the story; the veterans are. But by handling the job and company data that used to consume the team, Rollie made it possible for INvets to put its full energy where it belongs: on the veterans and spouses they serve.
