In this interview we caught up with Auta Main, the Veterans Program Manager for the Department of Labor and Rachel Knight, owner of Destination Occupation, to discuss the August 30 Hire-A-Vet kickoff campaign event, which takes place August 30 at the Augusta Civic Center. More than 260 employers—a record attendance—are ready to represent more than 10,000 jobs to anyone seeking employment here in Maine. Organizers hope to help 100 employers hire 100 vets in 100 days!
