Veterans Job Readiness Event

Following its commitment to help veterans find their place in the workforce, the Georgia Department of Labor (GDOL) will host a Job Readiness Kickoff on Friday, Sept. 20, in Augusta. Job-Readiness workshops will be held from 12 noon until 3 p.m. at the Augusta First Baptist Church, located at 3500 Walton Way. The workshops will help the returning veterans in networking, interviewing, translating their military skill-sets to the civilian workforce, and how to successfully navigate a career expo. The Job Readiness Kickoff has been specifically designed to coincide with the October 17 Paychecks for Patriots event being held at Fort Gordon.
