Military & Veteran Job Fairs Near You in July 2024

Attending a job fair specifically designed for veterans in person, can offer many benefits and job leads. Meeting face to face will allow you to engage more with prospective employers. In addition, most job fairs have fifty to one hundred employers in attendance so you can meet many representatives the same day.

Come prepared for the event with copies of your updated resume and related career information in hand because at most fairs you can interview on site, sometimes resulting in job offers the same day.

To make the most effective use of your time, pre-register for the event and review the employers scheduled to attend. If possible, look over the positions they are looking to fill. Be prepared to network and make connections for future reference.
