DeVry Inc. (NYSE: DV), a global provider of educational services, is
once again partnering with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s Hiring Our
Heroes program to offer career-training services at the Military Spouse
Hiring Fair on March 28 at Fort Hood, Texas.
The Fort Hood career fair is expected to draw more than 800 military
spouses for an event featuring résumé writing and interview coaching
from DeVry, as well as a hiring fair with national employers seeking to
fill open positions. DeVry first partnered with the Chamber earlier this
year to provide career services at a Hiring Our Heroes event in
Washington, D.C.
“DeVry’s experience providing professional career services adds
tremendous value to the military spouses attending these fairs across
the country,” said Laura Dempsey, director of the spouse employment
program at the U.S. Chamber Of Commerce. “The U.S. Chamber and Hiring
Our Heroes are delighted to continue this partnership with DeVry to
better serve our veterans and their families.”
DeVry’s career support services include writing and interview strategy
workshops offered both in advance of and during the event. Sessions are
led by trained career services professionals from DeVry University, part
of the DeVry Inc. family of educational institutions.
“DeVry is thrilled to expand our partnership with the U.S. Chamber of
Commerce and Hiring Our Heroes to continue to support our troops and
their spouses in finding new careers,” said Daniel Hamburger, president
and chief executive officer of DeVry Inc. “We saw tremendous success at
the January event in D.C. and look forward to another valuable career
fair at Fort Hood.”
The Hiring Our Heroes Military Spouse Career Forum takes place
on Wednesday, March 28 from 7 a.m. to noon at Club Hood, Building 5764,
24th Street and Wainwright Drive, Fort Hood, Texas.
