We loved Vetrepreneur Week with GIJobs.com and Vetrepreneur.
We’ve brought in the best of the best to share their secrets to success in all kinds of businesses. It’s amazing to see those who have sacrificed so much in their military life, to then successfully transition into the civilian world (and make bank!)
Whether you are a current military spouse or veteran, you don’t have to let demands of military life and life in general keep you from really following your dreams and starting your own business.
We’ve had some great speakers who took time from their day to share their successes with you. Check it out below and you might just learn something to help you take the next step in your career.
