Scott’s first transition summit a success
Lt. Col. Jason Stutzman, Air Mobility Command operations plans and requirements, attends an open panel of hiring managers during a free hiring fair and transition summit at Scott Air Force Base, Ill. on July 13, 2016. Stutzman asked about the biggest challenges and pitfalls most veterans face looking for a job after their time in the military. The first day of the transition summit offered industry briefs from Microsoft, the 375th Communications Group, Alcoa, Fastport, and SSM Health to transitioning service members, veterans, and military spouses, followed by a panel discussion with senior leaders of potential employers that answered questions of audience members on the transitioning process. The second day featured employment workshops, another panel discussion on different transition perspectives, and a hiring and education fair. (U.S. Air Force Photo by Airman Daniel Garcia)
