Sacramento, CA (PRWEB) April 17, 2008 -- The military-to-civilian recruiting firm RecruitMilitary will present a free hiring event for job seekers who have military backgrounds in Sacramento on Thursday, June 12. This event, the RecruitMilitary Career Fair, will take place from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. at ARCO Arena, home of the Sacramento Kings. RecruitMilitary urges all job seekers who have military backgrounds to attend--veterans who already have civilian work experience, men and women who are transitioning from active duty to civilian life, members of the National Guard and reserves, and military spouses.

The event will be the 49th of 104 RecruitMilitary Career Fairs scheduled for 2008. Another event will take place in Sacramento on November 20. RecruitMilitary will also produce career fairs in California's Inland Empire on July 10; in Las Vegas on December 11; in Long Beach on July 17; in Orange County on August 14; and in San Diego on November 13.

More than 20 veteran-friendly organizations will conduct one-on-one interviews with the job seekers--organizations that will include corporate employers, law-enforcement agencies and other government employers, educational institutions, veterans service agencies, and veterans associations. Already in the line-up are the California Department of Veterans Affairs, the California Franchise Tax Board, DeVry University, Kaplan University, Lockheed Martin Corporation, Lowe's, the Military Spouse Corporate Career Network, Oldcastle Architectural Products Group, Sacramento Coca-Cola, the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department, the San Francisco Police Department, the U.S. Border Patrol, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the Veterans Benefits Administration, and Wackenhut Corporation.

RecruitMilitary will produce the career fair in cooperation with The American Legion; HireVetsFirst, a unit of the United States Department of Labor; and the Military Spouse Corporate Career Network (MSCCN).

More than 500 organizations attended 45 RecruitMilitary Career Fairs in 2007. At those events, an average of 30-plus organizations interviewed an average of over 325 job seekers. RecruitMilitary Career Fairs conducted in 2006 and 2007 generated television coverage by CNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, and CNN; radio coverage by ESPN and numerous regional stations; and articles in metropolitan and local newspapers.

The American Legion is an association of veterans who served during times of war. The Legion has 2.7 million members in nearly 15,000 posts throughout the world. The National Commander of The American Legion is Martin F. Conatser, an Army veteran, of Champaign, Illinois. The Commander of the Department of California is Howard Darter. Congress chartered The American Legion in 1919. HireVetsFirst was created by Congress in 2002 to develop awareness among employers of the outstanding attributes of men and women who are transitioning from active duty to civilian life. The Military Spouse Corporate Career Network was founded in 2004 to provide career opportunities and job portability for military spouses. The organization is made up of military spouses, caregivers to war wounded, and retired military personnel.

RecruitMilitary, based in Cincinnati, connects employers with job seekers who have military backgrounds. All of the company's account executives and retained search consultants are either veterans or active or former reservists. In addition to participation in career fairs, RecruitMilitary offers subscriptions to its database of self-registered job seekers who have military backgrounds, currently numbering more than 200,000, at its Web site, www.recruitmilitary.com , advertising in online and print media, and retained hiring services.
