Empowering Veterans & Spouses with Career Opportunities, Virtual Career Fair May 18

The National Virtual Career Fair for Veterans will be hosted Tuesday, May 18, 2021 from 12pm to 4pm

From RecruitMilitary

While many might think that military veterans ages 18-24 would be the prime job candidate for employers, the reality is that unemployment of this group is at an all-time high of 15%.

The challenge seems to be that job seekers of this age aren’t sure how their military skills can translate into long-term civilian careers. That’s where RecruitMilitary steps in to bring this talent pool back into the job market.

Ready to deploy hundreds of job openings, RecruitMilitary and DAV will host the National Virtual Career Fair for Veterans on Tuesday, May 18^th from 12pm to 4pm EST. This free virtual hiring event is open for registration to all transitioning members of the military, veterans, military spouses and dependents.

RecruitMilitary’s virtual events are technologically enhanced to provide personal interaction among job candidates and employers in large group, small group and one-one-one formats. To view a tour of the virtual event format, visit here.
