The Department of Veterans Affairs, in collaboration with non-governmental organizations, hosts a series of monthly job fairs across the country for service members and veterans.
Whether you are looking for a job or considering a change in career path, attending one of these fairs in-person or virtually can be an excellent way to start or advance your civilian job search.
These career fairs provide a venue for employers that are interested in recruiting military service members and veterans, but also an opportunity for the job seeker to meet and interact with a wide array of employers at one time.
Job fairs present a chance to network with employers, strengthen interview skills, make new professional contacts, learn additional information about prospective employers and deliver your honed elevator pitch.
Before attending an in-person or virtual event, review the list of all attendees and research the employers that are of interest to understand their company profiles, mission and current openings.
