WASHINGTON — The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and Hiring Our Heroes are hosting a major service member and military veteran hiring event at Nationals Park on Sept. 7.
More than 75 employers will be recruiting for service members, veterans and military spouses from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The companies run the gamut, from banks, accounting firms and defense contractors, to government agencies, local governments and private employers, including Nestle, Tesla and Starbucks.

Nestle, which is planning to move its U.S. headquarters to Rosslyn, Virginia, is among the sponsors of the hiring event and says it alone has 40 jobs it is actively recruiting for, from sales and marketing, to technical and administrative jobs.
The Hiring Our Heroes event will also include an evening networking reception at Capital One Financial’s McLean headquarters Sept. 6, and a morning workshop at Nats Park Sept. 7 with HR and workforce professionals covering topics such as resumes, interviewing tips and how to promote military service to potential employers.
All registered job seekers are also eligible to get tickets to the Sept. 7 game between the Nationals and the Phillies at Nats Park.
