Unlike a job fair, these Civilian Career Workshops focus on helping service
members and veterans transition successfully into the workforce in any
industry. With service at the center of their core values, they are proud to
arm service men and women with knowledge and resources to navigate a successful
transition into a meaningful career. It is their goal to serve the military
community.

27, 2012 Mission: Transition event and hear directly from hiring managers,
