Home Depot Is Stepping It Up With New Veteran Employment Assistance Community

There are a lot websites out there that advertise jobs, but wouldn’t it be nice to have a conversation with a REAL person? Wouldn’t it be great to connect to a recruiter to show them what a great employee you’d be? 

 

Well, The Home Depot has created a brand new community where you can do just that. The community, named HomeTown, has a specific group to help veterans during their career search by giving them a place to network and have live conversations with recruiters.

 

Within the HomeTown community, veterans can:

• Chat directly with recruiters

• Learn from exclusive articles and free webinars

• Network with other military members and veterans

 

The Home Depot intends this free community to be your central hub to learn, grow and enhance your career. Veterans who take advantage of this free service will most definitely have an advantage when it comes time to applying and interviewing for their next career.

 

You can join the HomeTown community at: www.homedepotcommunity.com

 

ONGOING COMMITMENT

The Home Depot’s support of the nation’s military extends beyond the new HomeTown community as they offer plenty of resources to veterans. The company recently launched a new website highlighting this commitment (www.homedepotmilitary.com) and has offered its free Military Skills Translator Tool for some time now. The Skills Translator Tool is designed to help translate and match an applicant’s military skills to positions that might offer the best career fit.

The company has also partnered with military-focused career fairs and participates in multiple events throughout the year.

VetJobs, G.I. Jobs magazine and Military Spouse magazine have all named The Home Depot a top military-friendly employer.
