Middle Tennessee Hiring Fair for Veterans this Week

Tennessee National GuardSmyrna, TN – A Hiring Fair will be held on February 14th, at Building 500, on the Smyrna Volunteer Training Site from 1:00pm-4:00pm and is open to all National Guard members, reservists, spouses, and veterans, announced Maj. Gen. Terry “Max” Haston, Tennessee’s Adjutant General.

“We’re all taught to look out for our buddies and hiring fairs are one way of doing that,” Haston said. “Some service members have returned from Iraq or Afghanistan to find the place where they worked no longer in business, and now they’re out looking. We’re trying to help them every way we can.”

“This is an opportunity not only for our guard and reserve members and their spouses, but all veterans,” pointed out Marvin Wells, Executive Director for the Tennessee Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve. “The employers attending this event have job openings and are eager to speak to individuals with military skills.”

Employers already scheduled to be at the Hiring Fair are:  Dollar General, HCA, Auto Zone, Asurion, Yates Services, Demos, Averitt Express, Transcorp, and Manpower.

Employers wishing to attend may contact Joe Thomas at 615-613-5773 or email joethomas626@gmail.com
