Job Service North Dakota will host a Military and Veteran Virtual Job fair on Wednesday, December 8 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The virtual job fair is for all current military members, veterans, and their families. There is no cost to attend.
More than 60 employers from across North Dakota will be available to meet attendees and conduct interviews. The Job Fair will take place on the Job Service North Dakota’s Talentspace platform at https://app.talentspace.io/landing/0342343432200104142. Apple users are encouraged to use either Google Chrome or Firefox browsers to attend the event as Safari does not work well with the virtual platform.
“Veterans make great employees,” said Grand Forks Workforce Center Manager Dusty Hillebrand. “They have strong skills in teamwork, but can work independently to get the job done. They are able to adapt and overcome. Veterans are dependable and know the job isn’t done until the work is finished. They have a wide range of skills they have developed during their service. For employers, hiring veterans is a smart move.”
Attendees must register to enter the event, which can be done in advance or during the event. Once registered, they will be able to see the list of employers participating. Job seekers will be able to browse virtual booths, learn about each company and speak with hiring representatives from businesses of their choice.
