Participating companies will commit to hire one to five veteran students and provide fifteen (15) to twenty (20) hours of work each week in a position of need but ideally related to a student’s field of study. Each Veteran to Career participant will be paid a maximum of $9.00per hour for the first semester; thereafter, the participating company may award incentive increases based on company policies.
During a student’s final semester of education, participating companies should notify participants of any full-time employment opportunities, based on company needs, which may exist upon their successful completion of the program of study. If employment opportunities are unavailable, participants could be referred to other participating companies. Availability of fringe benefits may vary based on company policy. Company representatives will provide information about such benefits at the time of the interview/selection process. Students will be referred to participating companies based on an application process reviewed by the college representative and agreed upon by participating companies.
