- DAV & RecruitMilitary will host the National Virtual Career Fair for Veterans on Tuesday August 29th online from 11am to 3pm Eastern. Registration is free and available online to all transitioning military, veterans, military spouses and dependents.
- RecruitMilitary’s mission is to empower all members of the military community with meaningful employment opportunities through career resources including an online job board, networking opportunities, and hiring events.
- In July 2023, the veteran unemployment rate was 2.8%, up from the 2.7% the previous month.
- The employment of veterans is working for the civilian workforce for many reasons including:
- Veterans possess skills from military training that are embedded into their work ethic; non-veteran job candidates must learn these skills upon employment.
- Veterans are easily adaptable and accustomed to wearing many hats - trained to adapt quickly & efficiently.
- Veterans understand how to navigate the political climate in a corporate structure following years of structured employment within the military ranks.
- While employment of veterans is working, RecruitMilitary also focuses on the growth and change of the professional status of employed veterans.
