Governor Henry McMaster, the South Carolina Department of Administration (Admin), and the South Carolina Department of Veterans’ Affairs (SCDVA) encourage all South Carolina Veterans looking to continue a career of service to take part in the Veterans’ Virtual Career Fair today, Nov. 14, from 10 a.m.-1 p.m.
“South Carolina state government is committed to connecting Veterans to the wide variety of career options available in state government,” said Admin Executive Director Marcia Adams. “This year’s event not only includes a way for Veterans to easily connect directly with agencies in state government that have openings both now and, in the future, but also hands-on resources to help guide and prepare them in the transition from a career in the military service to a career in state government.”
The virtual career fair, the fourth dedicated to Veterans, provides an opportunity to explore career opportunities with more than 40 state agencies and institutions of higher education. Registration for the Veterans’ Virtual Career Fair, which will run from 10 a.m.-1 p.m., Thursday, Nov. 14, is still open. Veterans can register by visiting here.
Participating agencies are recruiting for accounting, engineering, finance, grant management, human resources, health care, information technology, maintenance, and security/law enforcement positions.
Each agency will have a virtual booth where job seekers can take part in a video chat or set a time to talk directly with a human resources representative about available openings. Some of the more than 40 participating agencies include:
