Press Release:

    Raleigh, N.C.     As part of Governor Pat McCrory's efforts to make North Carolina the most military and veteran-friendly state in the nation, his North Carolina for Military Employment initiative will host a summit tomorrow aimed at educating Greensboro employers on the benefits of hiring military talent.

    "One of my highest priorities is to connect veterans with jobs in North Carolina where they can put their military training and experience to use," Governor McCrory said. "We must encourage North Carolina businesses to take advantage of our veterans' skills and talents and realize the value they bring to the workplace."

    The Military Employment Summit series was designed to help North Carolina companies integrate military hiring into their workforce strategy and make annual hiring commitments.

    The summit will take place on Wednesday, February 24, from 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at the Business & Industry Building at the GTCC Donald W. Cameron Campus, 7908 Leabourne Rd., Colfax, N.C. 27235.

    Senior industry, government and military leaders will come together to share their knowledge and successes in hiring military candidates to drive bottom-line business results.

    Governor McCrory launched North Carolina for Military Employment in March 2015 to employ the more than 20,000 service members transitioning out through North Carolina bases annually. The initiative supports Governor McCrory's goal to make North Carolina the most military and veteran friendly state and the number one state for veteran employment in the nation.
