| SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) _ Gov. Dennis Daugaard is asking employers to consider putting veterans at the top of their ``to-hire'' lists as jobs are filled in November. The Argus Leader reports that Daugaard is encouraging South Dakota business leaders, public officials and leaders of civic and fraternal organizations that have employment opportunities to hire veterans for the posts. Veterans' employment representatives are located in 19 Department of Labor and Regulation offices in the state. They give employment services that help veterans transition to the civilian work force. The state's DLR website says veterans receive priority in state training programs. More information and job postings are available at www.sdjobs.org . (Copyright 2011 by The Associated Press.
