Fort Bragg, N.C. – As part of Governor Pat McCrory’s goal to make North Carolina the most military and veteran friendly state in the nation, service members, veterans and their families are invited to a hiring event at Fort Bragg on Tuesday, April 5.
“I encourage all veterans and service members to attend this event and connect to jobs in North Carolina,” said Governor McCrory. “North Carolina is already on its way to be the most military and veteran friendly state in the nation and this initiative builds on our commitment to support veterans, service members and their families.”
People attending the event will learn more about open Correctional Officer positions the state is looking to fill at various locations in North Carolina.
“Military troops and veterans are a great asset to the State,” said Neal Alexander, Director of the Office of State Human Resources (OSHR). “They have the skill-sets, experience and discipline needed to excel at these positions and many others.”
