SUMMARY:The Network: Direct Employer Access (Norfolk)
DESCRIPTION:Stop applying online. Start shaking hands. Bypass the resume “black hole.” Meet vetted hiring managers who know what your clearance is worth\nThe Algorithm Can’t Hire You. We Can.\nThe Problem: You spend hours tailoring your resume. You submit it to an online portal. You wait. You hear nothing. The “Black Hole” of online applications is the enemy of a fast transition.\nThe Solution: The Network is your bypass. We cut the red tape and put you in the room with the people who actually sign the offer letters.\nThis isn’t a “job fair” where you collect brochures. This is a tactical access point to the 757’s most aggressive military-hiring companies. We have vetted every employer in the room. They aren’t here to tell you to “apply on the website”—they are here to find their next team leader.\nWho Should Attend:\nTransitioning Service Members: Who are tired of the waiting game.\nMilitary Spouses: Looking for employers who understand the PCS lifestyle.\nVeterans: Ready to level up from their current civilian role.\nYour Rules of Engagement:\nBring Resumes if you have them BUT no biggie if you don’t.\nBe Social: No stress\, take your 30 seconds to tell them who you are. Make it count. Learn who they are and what they’re looking for. If it’s not you\, how you can help.\nThe job market is all about who you know. Come know the right people.\nIf you have any additional questions\, please do not hesitate to contact us:\nNorfolk Front Desk: 757-807-0423\nEmail: militarycommunity@theworkforcecouncil.org\nThis event and the services provided herein at the Hampton Roads Veterans Employment Centers are funded through 25% or $199\,576 through the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act and 75% or $580\,391 through nonfederal sources.
