Leading Edge
Proven leadership, teamwork and the ability to focus on the task at hand are traits that employers seek in new hires. They’re also traits possessed by our nation’s veterans and wounded warriors.
Veterans and wounded warriors who are returning home from deployment and those retiring after a career of service to our country need jobs.
Leadership Maryland will be hosting an event, Honor Their Service. Hire Veterans, on Monday, March 26 from 9:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. at Patuxent High School, 12485 Southern Connector Boulevard, Lusby, MD
