Veteran Career Fair and Expo

Join the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and your fellow Veterans on Wednesday, January 18, 8:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m., at the Veteran Career Fair and Expo, a free event brought to you by VA for Vets.

The Veteran Career Fair and Expo is an exciting event designed to provide career and education opportunities for Veterans in Washington, DC, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and West Virginia. As a Veteran, you will be able to register for the benefits and services you have earned through your military service.

Prepare for a Civilian Career

VA and other federal agencies are looking to hire qualified Veterans. Hiring managers from VA and other federal agencies will be on-site to interview and hire Veterans for a variety of positions. Career Coaches will be available to help you:

• Translate your military experience into marketable skills
• Build a resume in the federal job application format
• Find career opportunities in the federal government that are a fit for you

Closer to the event, information about special non-competitive hiring authority positions will be posted on this website. You will then have the opportunity to submit your resume, DD214 and eligibility letter to qualify for an onsite interview.

Need help preparing for the event? Go to the VA for Vets Career Center, translate your military skills and create a federally formatted resume today.
