The DAV and RecruitMilitary will host an Omaha Veterans Job Fair at CHI Health Center tomorrow (Thursday, May 16) from 11-a.m. to 3-p.m. for veterans, military spouses, transitioning military, National Guard members and Reservists.  The free event features 30+ employers ready to hire this May during “Military Appreciation Month.”

Just last week, Google announced a new feature of its partnership with RecruitMilitary that provides “remote work” search options for those seeking flexible, remote work opportunities.  This feature is especially important to the underemployed and underutilized military spouse demographic that currently accounts for 25% unemployment among its 600,000 eligible work-force.  This is the highest unemployment rate of any demographic in the U.S.

RecruitMilitary is providing a solution to this staggering unemployment issue by working with Google to bring 8,000 remote jobs directly to military spouses and veterans through this week’s Omaha hiring event, as well as its mobile-friendly online job board.  For more information, or to register, go to: https://success.recruitmilitary.com/events/omaha-veterans-job-fair-may-16-2019
