*** Mark your calendar for the MOAA October 30th Military Career Fair***
Sheraton National Hotel
Arlington, VA
Registration Opening Soon!
For more than ten years, the Military Officers Association of America (MOAA) has hosted military friendly career fairs – the largest in the greater Washington, DC metro area – that bring thousands of job seekers and military friendly employers together. Our goal is to create a smoother transition for those leaving the service, and to provide high quality candidates to potential employers.
“Our events are designed to do two things: help servicemembers transition easily into the civilian market, and provide employers the opportunity to meet candidates with leadership skills and strong professional backgrounds. What we offer to both groups is a platform to meet and match skill sets with employment opportunities.” –Amanda Bainton, MOAA Career Center Event Manager
Employers like Amazon, 3M, Lockheed Martin, Chick-fil-A, and many more, return to the fairs each year, looking for strong backgrounds, leadership skills, and professionalism.
"Continues to be the premier military hiring event in the DC Metro area!"- John, BAE Systems
"You know you can train someone to come into your company to do the actual job they're hired for," says Wal-Mart official Levey Williams. "But leadership is definitely hard to find and that's why we're here - to tap into that leadership."
"Excellent career fair! Very organized! Employers actually wanted to meet prospects (I've been to fairs where it appeared they didn't want to be there). Good representation of companies. Thanks for doing this!"- Job Seeker from the April 2011 event.
If you’re preparing to transition, or looking for highly qualified candidates, don’t miss out on this great opportunity.
The fairs are held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, in the spring and the fall. All officers, enlisted, active duty, former, and retired servicemembers and their spouses, and government employees are encouraged to attend.
