What kind of things do military veterans get? I'm dimly aware something exists in the US, but I'm not from the US so not sure what that is exactly.

Preference for all public-sector jobs (not just federal, but I think all fifty states give some forms of veterans preference, and a handful give “absolute preference” where a minimally-qualified veteran must be hired over a non-veteran regardless of qualifications.) But even where its not absolute preference, it often is a very strong preference (e.g., California on open civil service exams typically limits hiring to the top 3 ranks on the resulting hiring list, with each rank being 5 points of exam score on a 100-point, before preference points, scale. Veterans get 10 extra points, or 15 if they have a qualifying degree of disability.)
