Military veterans looking for a job can attend a Veterans Job Fair
on Feb. 22 at the Charleston Area Convention Center in North Charleston.
More than 50 area companies, defense contractors and government agencies will be on-site to recruit veterans for available positions. Veterans Affairs will also provide on-site enrollment for health care and benefits, and vocational rehabilitation counselors will discuss job-training opportunities.
Congressman Tim Scott will host the 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. event in conjunction with the Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center and the S.C. Works Trident division of the state Department of Employment and Workforce.
The event is free and open to all veterans, active-duty military and their families.
"There are many service members transitioning to veteran status that are in need of jobs, and the VA appreciates Congressman Scott's leadership on bringing together some of the best employers in the Charleston area to help meet that need," said Scott Isaacks, acting director of the Ralph H. Johnson VA Medical Center.
Veterans should bring copies of their resume to the event. Employers interested in participating in the job fair should contact Scott's office at (843) 852-2222.
