We are proud partners in the Maine Hire-A-Vet Campaign, which seeks to have 100+ Maine employers hire 100+ veterans over a period of 100 days…the incredible news is that we have EXCEEDED that goal already, and we still have 2+ weeks to go!
Congratulations to our partners in the campaign on a job well done.
