Hello Gary,


This is MassHire Lowell’s Veterans' Program newsletter for December 2024. We wanted to let you know about employment resources, events, and job listings. 

 

On Tuesday, December 17th, we have a recruitment for the Markley Group who are looking to hire 50 maintenance technicians. 


To start the new year, we will be hosting veteran-focused career workshops on Wednesday, January 15, 2025, at the Lowell Career Center. The workshops were developed through the Department of Labor’s “Off-Base Transition Training (OBTT)” program. Veterans have found them informative, professionally delivered and well worth attending.
