– The DAV and RecruitMilitary Atlanta are hosting a Veterans Job Fair on Sept. 28. 

The job fair will be held on Thursday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, located at 1 AMB Dr NW in Atlanta. DAV and RecruitMilitary are joining forces to attract, hire, and retain military veterans and military spouses in the Atlanta area, according to a press release.

The hiring event is free for all transitioning members of the military, veterans, military spouses, and dependents.

“Leaving the military to pursue a career in the civilian world is a difficult mission for transitioning service members and their families. Unsure of how to navigate the civilian structures of the workforce, military service members are left to navigate the process within a firm timeline and with little support,” the press release states. “That’s where RecruitMilitary steps in to lead the journey of job seekers into civilian roles that produce long term careers.”
