The 2025 campaign kicks off this Thursday, August 14, at the Augusta Civic Center and will be followed by monthly in-person hiring events throughout the state:

• August 14, 2025 | 10:30 am to 3:00 pm | Augusta Civic Center
• September 25, 2025 | 11:00 am to 3:00 pm | University of Maine-Orono

• November 13, 2025 | 11:00 am to 3:00 pm | University of Maine-Farmington

While the campaign is focused on veterans and their families, these events are open to ALL jobseekers!

The Maine Hire-A-Vet campaign provides support and resources to connect veterans with employers through a network of state and federal agencies, resources and nonprofits, education on military language and culture, recruiting and hiring assistance, and recognition for the hiring and advancement of veterans and military family members.
