If that sounds like you, we hope you'll join us to hear directly from others just like you, and companies committed to supporting service members and their families.
Learn about programs and roles designed specifically for veterans and military spouses, and get tips from recruiters and hiring managers on how to best showcase your experience.

Williams, Sr. Talent Strategy Leader, Military and Individuals with Disabilities (USN Retired) at Kaiser Permanente; Stephanie Brown, Founder & CEO of The Rosie Network; Flossie Hall, Co-Founder of the Association of Military Spouse Entrepreneurs; Jennifer Dane, CEO & Executive Director of Modern Military Association of America; and many others.
