Description
Did you know that 27,000 service members will transition out of North Carolina military bases in 2015, already equipped with high-demand skills that businesses need? However, thousands of employers overlook this talent pool because they are unaware of the value that veterans can bring to their organization or the resources available to find military candidates that match their needs. To combat this, the NC Chamber recently joined forces with the NC for Military Employment (NC4ME) initiative to provide a series of Military Employment Summits designed to help North Carolina companies integrate returning service-women and men into their workforce strategy.
Local employers have the opportunity to join industry, government and military leaders to learn and share success stories on how utilizing the unique experiences of veterans can drive bottom-line results. You're invited to the first annual summit on Tuesday, Aug. 18 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:45 p.m.at the MetLife Global Technology Campus in Cary. View the details in the attached flyer and join us in our fight to make North Carolina the number one state for harnessing the value of its veterans.
