“It’s a great opportunity for military back from deployment as well as for all veterans,” said Marvin Wells, National Guard Bureau employer support specialist. “They finish with a resume in hand and ready to interview with employers who value the many qualities a reservist can bring to a company.”
The focus is on analyzing skills veterans attained through the military, strengths and weaknesses, effective job search strategies, writing resumes and cover letters, mock interviews, the job-search process, researching companies, analyzing want ads and completing application forms.
The workshop is available to unemployed individuals and those who are underemployed.
