757 Career Summit Preparation Seminar (Southside) Day 1

Ready to ace your next job fair but feeling shaky on networking and introductions? This workshop is your gladiator training!

The Department of Labor's (DOL) Veterans’ Employment and Training Service (VETS), in partnership with the Hampton Roads Veterans Employment Center (HRVEC), will facilitate the workshops from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. These live, facilitated workshops leverage best practices from the DOL’s Off-Base Transition Training (OBTT) and Transition Employment Assistance for Military Spouses (TEAMS) workshops to support transitioning service members, veterans, and military spouses in the pursuit of their employment goals.

By attending one, or both, of these workshops, participants will be better informed and prepared for their upcoming 757 Career Summit experience.
