TODAY is joining forces with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce to launch a new initiative: Hiring our Heroes.
There are more than 1 million unemployed veterans in America. As service members return from Iraq and Afghanistan during the next five years, hundreds of thousands of more men and women in uniform are leaving active duty.
TODAY will broadcast a three-day series on this topic, culminating in free worldwide job fairs for veterans on March 28.
More than 1,500 veterans and military families and 100 companies are expected to participate in events in New York City, Chicago and Fort Hood, Texas. TODAY will broadcast live from the New York event, which will be held on the USS Intrepid Sea, Air, and Space Museum.
Not in one of those locations? Check back after Feb. 24 to register for a virtual job fair run in conjunction with Monster/Military.com. You can log in from anywhere in the world to attend virtually, and you'll be able to submit a resume and meet with company representatives. TODAY will broadcast live from Stuttgart, Germany, as servicemen and women participate in the online event.
Find more info and sign up for the job fairs at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce website.
