Veterans, transitioning service members and military spouses from Seminole County are among those invited to CareerSource Central Florida's Paychecks for Patriots hiring event on Tuesday, Nov. 10, in south Orlando.

The event runs from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Orange Technical College, Building 1600, 2900 West Oak Ridge Road, according to the workforce board's event listing. There is no Seminole County site for this event.

Who can attend

CareerSource Central Florida describes the event as a hiring fair held in honor of those who served, inviting veterans and their spouses to meet and interview with employers who are ready to hire. WFTV reported that while the fair honors veterans and service members, it is open to all job seekers, and that veterans from Lake, Osceola, Orange, Seminole and Sumter counties are invited.

The event page does not list a registration requirement. Questions can go to CareerSource Central Florida at (800) 757-4598.

More than 20 employers are expected, WFTV reported, including Rosen Hotels and Resorts, the City of Orlando, JPMorgan Chase, Lynx, Massey Services, The Walt Disney Company, Trustco Bank, Valencia College and the Orange County Sheriff's Office.

Job seekers are advised to bring several printed copies of a resume and to be ready for networking and interviews on the spot, according to the station. The fair will also point veterans and their families to community support programs.
