Langley AFB Defense Technology & Intelligence Career Fair
Thursday, September 11, 2008
Langley Community Center - 10AM to 2PM
About the Career Fair:
The Langley AFB Defense Technology & Intelligence Career Fair is hosted by Air Force Association (AFA), Langley Chapter and produced by Transition Careers. The purpose of this event is to bring job seekers and employers/recruiters within the defense technology, intelligence, scientific, contractor, academic and government communities together. This is the only technical, intelligence and security clearance career fair to take place at Langley AFB and it will offer great foot traffic due to the well-placed location and support from the base. Exhibit space and sponsorship opportunities are very limited and will sell out quickly. The event is best suited for government and industry employers/recruiters seeking job seekers from either the Langley AFB area, ACC, Air Force, any security clearance or have a background within intelligence, contractor, military or government communities.

If you have questions about the career fair, contact Brent Dye with Transition Careers via email Brent@TransitionCareers.com or 443-270-6572
New Homes for Injured and Wounded Service Members
As you may know, Operation Homefront is obtaining very special discounts for injured service members and wounded vets on new homes in neighborhoods around the nation. Some homebuilders are offering up to $50,000 off, and in some cases that money can be used for the down payment or upgrades to accommodate disabilities. Lenders are also working with us to provide excellent terms on 30-year loans. This is the opportunity of a lifetime for many young military families, and I am asking you to please spread the word. Anyone may qualify who has been injured, wounded or has some degree of PTSD and these medical issues can be verified with an official letter. Our purpose is to leverage the housing crisis to get steep discounts on homes for military families who deserve a break. As always, please let us know if you have any questions. More information can be found at Operation Homefront and please check back frequently as new projects are listed every day.
Please spread the word!
