These events require a collaborative effort between Hiring Our Heroes, military service organizations, and the base command teams.<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cWe can\u2019t be successful without those command teams. Their participation is critical to our success.\u201d \u2013 Chuck Hodges, Hiring Our Heroes Executive Director<\/p>\n<h3>2. Through the years, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hiringourheroes.org\/career-summit-a-military-family-hiring-event\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Career Summits<\/a> have been modified to meet the needs of the attendees and installation command teams.<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cWe don\u2019t provide redundant services. That\u2019s how we have been able to stay relevant.\u201d \u2013 Chuck Hodges, Hiring Our Heroes Executive Director<\/p>\n<h3>3. Oftentimes between 20 and 30 companies are on the waitlist for any Career Summit.<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cIf you sit around and wait (to register) until the last couple of days before the event, there\u2019s a high probability that you\u2019re going to be on a waitlist. It\u2019s not because we don\u2019t want them there. It\u2019s truly the physical limitations of the space that we\u2019re operating in. If you\u2019re a veteran-ready company and want to get access to this talent pool, register early and register often.\u201d \u2013 Chuck Hodges, Hiring Our Heroes Executive Director<\/p>\n<h3>4. Augusta, Georgia, is one of the world\u2019s top 10 global cybersecurity hubs. The <a href=\"https:\/\/events.hiringourheroes.org\/events\/fort-gordon-career-summit\/event-summary-3df1432aaf1744489dd853ff611d0946.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fort Gordon Career Summit<\/a> will celebrate the success of the Career Summits and launch the program into the next five years.<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cWhat we will see at (the) Fort Gordon (Career Summit on June 19-20) is an amplification of everything that we\u2019ve done. It\u2019s going to bring together everyone that we\u2019ve worked with over the last five years and set the stage for what the future will be. \u2013 Marnie Holder, Director of Career Summits at Hiring Our Heroes<\/p>\n<h3>5. Retired General John F. Campbell and his wife Ann will be at the Fort Gordon Summit as the newest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hiringourheroes.org\/ambassadors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hiring Our Heroes and Toyota Personal Brand Ambassadors<\/a>.<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cFirst for them, 100th for us.\u201d \u2013 Marnie Holder, Director of Career Summits at Hiring Our Heroes<\/p>\n<h3>The HOH Sitrep podcast is the official podcast of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation\u2019s Hiring Our Heroes initiative.
