The North Carolina Army National Guard assisted the North Carolina Works Career Center during a Military Career Summit for active-duty service members, transitioning service members, military spouses, veterans and civilian employers at the National Guard armory in Goldsboro, North Carolina, June 24 2021.
The main partnering organizations during the summit, were the NC Works Career Center, Eastern Carolina Workforce Development Board, NCARNG, Seymour Johnson Air Force Base Airmen & Family Readiness Center, University of Mount Olive and Wayne Community College, as well as 20 plus employers were setup to recruit military members for $15.00 an hour or more jobs.
“The Guard has been extremely helpful,” said Greg Wade, the manager of the Wayne County NC Works Career Center. “They were generous to provide facilities to hold it, the system for planning and execution as well as the logistics for the event.”
In addition to employers, information panels were conducted. These panels included, but weren’t limited to, financial planning, the military-to-civilian transition process and an employer-friendly question and answer session.
“This event has brought professionals to the table, which has allowed our National Guard member have a safe place to come to for professional employment,” said U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Mckenzie Hills, a recruiter assigned to the NCARNG Recruiting & Retention Battalion.
