RecruitMilitary Career Fair for Military Veterans and Military Spouses Coming to New Orleans on May 31

New Orleans, LA (PRWEB) May 16, 2007 -- The military-to-civilian recruiting firm RecruitMilitary will present a free hiring event for job seekers who have military backgrounds on Thursday, May 31, in New Orleans. The RecruitMilitary Career Fair will take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the Third Floor Concourse at the Fair Grounds Race Course. The event will be open to veterans who already have civilian work experience, men and women who are transitioning from active duty to civilian life, members of the National Guard and reserves, and military spouses. More than 20 veteran-friendly organizations will conduct one-on-one interviews with the job seekers--corporate employers, law-enforcement and other government employers, educational institutions, and military service associations.

This will be the 14th of 45 RecruitMilitary Career Fairs scheduled for 2007. During 10 events produced from January through April, an average of 30-plus organizations interviewed an average of over 500 job seekers. The line-up for the New Orleans Career Fair already includes Allied Waste, Inc., the Defense Intelligence Agency, Lowe's, Oldcastle Architectural Products Group, Veracity Research Company, Wackenhut Corporation, Walgreens, Woodmen of the World, and many, many more.

"We are very pleased to provide this opportunity for veterans from the New Orleans region and beyond," said Drew Myers, President of RecruitMilitary and a former Captain in the Marine Corps. "We are always glad to help veterans connect with civilian employers; and, in this case, we have an extra incentive--helping veterans who have been vocationally displaced by Katrina re-connect with the region."

RecruitMilitary will produce the New Orleans Career Fair in cooperation with HireVetsFirst, a unit of the United States Department of Labor; The American Legion; and the Military Spouse Corporate Career Network (MSCCN). HireVetsFirst was created by Congress in 2002 to develop awareness among employers of the outstanding attributes of men and women who are transitioning from active duty to civilian life. The American Legion is an association of veterans who served during times of war. The Legion has 2.7 million members in nearly 15,000 posts throughout the world. The National Commander of the American Legion is Paul A. Morin, an Army veteran, of Chicopee, Massachusetts. The Commander of the Department of Louisiana is Forrest Travirca, III, of Lockport, a veteran of the United States Navy. Congress chartered The American Legion in 1919. The Military Spouse Corporate Career Network was founded in 2004 to provide career opportunities and job portability for military spouses. The organization is made up of military spouses, caregivers to war wounded, and retired military personnel. The President and founder is Deb Kloeppel, a military spouse.

RecruitMilitary, based in Cincinnati, connects employers with job seekers who have a military background. All of the company's owners, officers, account executives, and recruiters are either veterans or active or former reservists. In addition to participation in career fairs, RecruitMilitary offers subscriptions to its database of self-registered job seekers who have a military background, currently numbering more than 154,000, at its Web site, www.recruitmilitary.com ; advertising in online and print media; and contingency and retained hiring services. The company mails more than 53,000 copies of a quarterly, print newsletter called Incoming! to over 230 military bases throughout the world for distribution to transitioning personnel. Employers advertise their job openings in Incoming! RecruitMilitary was founded in 1998.

RecruitMilitary produced 13 career fairs in 2006. More than 225 organizations and over 8,000 job seekers attended those events. The career fairs generated television coverage by CNBC, ABC, NBC, and CNN; radio coverage by ESPN and numerous regional stations; and articles in several newspapers.

Does the PR Blueprint Work?
Managers, please take a minute and read two sentences: People act on their own perception of the facts before them, which leads to predictable behaviors about which something can be done. When we create, change or reinforce that opinion by reaching, persuading and moving-to-desired-action the very people whose behaviors affect the organization the most, the public relations mission is accomplished.
