Pre-made and ready. All selected by default, so just untick any you don't want.

Any job you recruit for: type the code and title, tweak the talking points, add the real numbers.

Job facts (optional; anything you fill in becomes its own "numbers" slide)

Add your info

This goes on the last slide of every deck. The QR code it builds saves your name, station, and number straight into a recruit's phone as a contact card.

Your decks are ready.

Every slide is below. Tap ⬇ on any slide to save just that one (great for single-image posts), click a slide to view it full size, or grab everything as a ZIP.

How to post these so they actually reach recruits

The decks do the design work. How you post them decides the reach. The short version of what works for recruiters on Instagram and TikTok:

Post the slides in order. Hook first, contact card last. Instagram carousels get re-served to people who didn't finish them, so the order is the pitch.
Add trending audio before sharing. Carousels with audio get pushed into Reels surfaces and reach non-followers. Pick anything trending. It doesn't need to match.
Post 2–3× a week, every week. Consistency beats perfection. A steady feed of decent posts outperforms one great post a month.
Rotate deck types. Why-join for reach, job spotlights for intent, pay & benefits for the parents and spouses who influence the decision.
Never delete a post that flopped. Archive it. Deleting signals inconsistency to the algorithm; archiving keeps your grid clean without the penalty.
Answer every comment and DM fast. The QR code and your handle put recruits one tap away. Response time is what converts them.

About this tool

VetraFi Recruiter Carousels is a free social media content generator for U.S. military recruiters. It turns pre-written, branch-checked recruiting content into ready-to-post Instagram carousels: marketing materials with your name, recruiting station, and contact info on the final slide of every deck. Recruiters in the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Space Force use it to post consistent job-spotlight and why-join content without touching Canva, PowerPoint, or a design team.

Every photo comes from DVIDS (public-domain U.S. DoD imagery) and is checked against your branch, every deck can carry recruiter-entered job facts (enlistment bonus, training pipeline, ASVAB requirements), and every contact slide includes a QR code that saves your contact card straight to a recruit's phone. Built by VetraFi, banking for warfighters, as part of the free VetraFi military tools suite.

Frequently asked questions

Is this recruiter marketing tool really free?

Yes. VetraFi builds free financial tools for the military community, and this one is free for recruiters. You enter your email so we can send your kit and occasional recruiter tools. That's the whole trade. No watermarks, no paid tier.

What marketing materials do I actually get?

Ready-to-post Instagram carousels sized 1080×1350: a why-join pitch deck for your branch, job spotlight decks (by MOS, rate, or AFSC), and a pay-and-benefits deck. Every deck ends with a contact slide carrying your name, recruiting station, phone, social handle, and a QR code that saves your contact card to a recruit's phone. You download everything as PNG files.

Which branches does it cover?

All six: Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Space Force. Imagery is branch-checked: a Navy recruiter never gets tanks, and an Air Force recruiter never gets battleships.

Can I make a deck for my specific MOS, rate, or AFSC?

Yes. Type any job code and title (12B, HM, 1B4X1, 0311, AST, anything), add your own talking points and job facts (enlistment bonus, training pipeline, ASVAB line scores), and the tool builds a deck for that job with branch-appropriate photos.

Are the photos cleared for me to post?

All imagery is U.S. Department of Defense visual information from DVIDS, which is public domain. Appearance of DoD visual information does not imply or constitute DoD endorsement.

Do I need Canva, Photoshop, or design skills?

No. Pick your branch, pick your decks, type your name and office, and download finished slides. Preview every slide and swap any photo before you download. Everything renders in your browser. Nothing to install.

How do recruits reach me from a post?

The last slide of every deck is your contact card: name, station, phone, and social handle, plus a QR code. Scanning it opens "Add to Contacts" on the recruit's phone with your details pre-filled.
