FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (Operation Career Fair and Conference):

What if someone wasn’t an 88M but assigned to a transportation unit that obtained their CDL license during cross training?

The military is amazing for backup to backup. Simply put, look past the MOS and listen to the person’s entire career.

What separates this Career Fair from others?

Operation Career Fair is an all-day event (0900-1530). This allows personnel the flexibility to attend around a busy schedule. With the event lasting longer, the service members along with companies can focus on the opportunity rather than feeling rushed or a company wanting to talk to every person that passes the table.

Will I obtain direct contacts for assisting in recruiting service members for opportunities?

The entire first day is about organizations assisting in recruiting service members, Reserve, National Guard, veterans and spouses.

If I do not have a veteran program and want to create one that is beneficial to the company and the service members, is this the conference that will guide us in creating an internal veteran plan?

ABSOLUTELY! Many companies want to hire service members and/or their spouses but don’t know where to begin.
