November is Hire A Veteran Month in Massachusetts
Throughout November, Massachusetts’ One-Stop Career Centers will hold special workshops and information sessions to help veterans find jobs. This campaign is sponsored by the Massachusetts Department of Workforce Development and the Department of Veterans’ Services in partnership with the U.S. Department of Labor. Employers are being encouraged hire veterans and to sign up to be acknowledged as a “Veterans Friendly Employer” by contacting the Department of Veteran’s Services at 617-210-5970 or go to mass.gov/veterans. You may also link to www.mass.gov/careercenters to learn about services offered to veterans and other job-seekers.
