Helping Vets through a Virtual Job Fair

Written by Lisa Rosser on August 13, 2010 – 3:07 pm -

Here’s a great website available for veterans that will help them tackle the enormous task of finding a job after the military. The website, milicruit.com offers a wide range of jobs for veterans through their multiple career fairs.  However, the career fair is not are not what you would typically expect. Milicruit.com offers veterans and employers the ability to attend career fairs without even leaving their home or office. All participants attend the event virtually.

The virtual expo looks similar to a real life career fair with several employer booths and representatives on hand to explain their companies and assist with any questions. At each “booth” veterans can submit a resume, learn about the company, view available job listings, and even talk with a company representative. The use of technology allows this virtual career fair to be everything a regular expo would be at your city convention center, except this career fair is much easier to access and has the possibility to connect you with more people and employers. Their last event in July had over 10,000 veterans registered and 30 industry employers in attendance.
