The Georgia Department of Labor’s Gwinnett Career Center and the Aviation Institute of Maintenance in Duluth will co-host a job expo for veterans and other job seekers Wednesday, April 4.
The expo will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Aviation Institute, located at 2025 Satellite Point, off Satellite Boulevard. Staff members will be on hand to help veterans with employment-related issues, as well as provide information from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) on service-connected disabilities and other medical services available to the vets.

Some employers will be hiring, while others will be discussing future employment opportunities with the job seekers, and other organizations will be providing educational and other resources. Applicants should bring plenty of resumes and be prepared to fill out company applications and interview for available job openings, including part time, full-time, entry-level, supervisory, and management positions.
