Opportunities for Delaware Veterans this August

Dear Friend, 

Are you a veteran looking for a job? Do you have a family member, friend or neighbor who fought for our country and is looking for employment? On Monday, August 18, and Monday, August 25, the Delaware Delegation will host two Veterans Jobs Fairs.

As a veteran of the Navy, I know firsthand about the sacrifices our military members make while defending our home abroad. I also know that the transition back to civilian life can sometimes be difficult – and as our economy continues to recover, some veterans in our state are still searching for long-term employment. But these brave men and women have the leadership traits and skills that make them fantastic candidates for employers – which is why so many employers are excited about this opportunity, too.

Both fairs will host more than 30 employers in the private, public and non-profit sectors that will present a wide range of opportunities to Delaware veterans. More details can be found below. The first Veterans Jobs Fair will be this Monday, August 18, at the Carlisle Fire Company in Milford, Delaware.
