LOVELAND, Ohio - Oct. 18, 2016 - PRLog -- DAV and RecruitMilitary will produce an All Veterans Career Fair at The Fawcett Center on November 3, 2016 from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m.

"RecruitMilitary job fairs maintain a track record of helping veterans find meaningful employment," said President and CEO Peter Gudmundsson. "Just last year, 56.3% of veteran job seekers expected to secure an interview as a result of their participation in a RecruitMilitary job fair and employers were expected to extend as many as 38,700 interviews and more than 12,000 job offers."

In July of 2016, the DAV-RecruitMilitary Columbus event connected more than 161 veteran job seekers with 45 exhibitors, including Accenture, Federal Aviation Administration and The Home Depot.  Participating companies expected to conduct up to 325 interviews and make up to 113 job offers as a result of that career fair.

RecruitMilitary has produced veteran job fairs since 2006 and has held 10 events in Columbus, drawing 2,237 attendees and 450 exhibitors. The company has produced more than 814 events in 65 cities across the country.

DAV was founded by World War I veterans in Cincinnati in 1920 and chartered by the United States Congress in 1932. DAV (www.dav.org) is a non-profit organization with 1.2 million members.

DAV and RecruitMilitary share a common mission: to connect America's veterans and their family members with meaningful and fulfilling employment opportunities, and to help employers attract, appreciate and retain veterans, spouses, and their survivors. Through career fairs, outreach and resources, this partnership fights to ensure veterans receive the benefits they've earned and are empowered to lead productive, dignified and high-quality lives that their service has made possible.
