CANCELLED - Business Networking Luncheon - Working with Veterans

CANCELLED - Business Networking Luncheon - Working with Veterans

Event Sponsors

Platinum Sponsor
Holiday Inn Express - Monroe

THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED.
Many studies show veterans are more productive and have higher retention rates than their civilian counterparts. Therefore, it would seem to make good business sense to hire veterans. However, many companies struggle to translate military skills into corporate assignments. 

Commander Paul Bill, Veteran Employment Director of Veterans Bridge Home joins us for this Business Networking Luncheon to discuss the "Why" and "How" of hiring Veterans.  

In his talk, he will help employers understand:
  • The benefits of hiring Veterans
  • Typical attributes of Veterans, including the hard and soft skills they possess that will be an asset to your organization
  • Challenges in reading resumes of and interviewing Veterans
  • An overview of on-boarding and retention challenges related to hiring Veterans and what you can do about them
Join the Chamber for lunch, networking and an informative discussion on how you can improve your organization by hiring local Veterans.

Please note, in response to feedback from our members, changes have been made to the door prize giveaway at Business Networking Luncheons.  To give away a door prize at the Luncheon, complete the special “door prize registration” when you register for the event.  The number of door prizes to be given away will be limited on a first come, first serve basis with no more than a total of five per event.

Please help us prevent the spread of germs by opting out of this event if you are experiencing cold or flu symptoms.

Commander Paul Bill is the Veteran Employment Director of Veterans Bridge Home in Charlotte. He enlisted in 1982 as a Seabee electrician; Commissioned in 1989 and finished out his 30 years as a Navy Surface Warfare Officer.

A true sailors, ‘sailor,' he spent more than 6 deployments in the Persian Gulf, Red Sea and conducting counter narcotic operations in the Caribbean.  Military life has impacted his life in a transformational way.
