Dec. 1, 2015—On Thursday, Service King Collision Repair Centers will host a hiring fair and development day exclusively for military veterans and family members in Texas as a part of its Mission 2 Hire initiative.

The day will include a variety of career development opportunities including expert leadership panel discussions, breakout workshops and a networking lunch.

“This is yet another exciting opportunity for Service King and our very own teammates to reach out and provide tangible career opportunities to our nation’s heroes,” said Chris Abraham, Service King CEO. “The brave men and women who served in the U.S. Armed Forces exemplify the very skillsets, leadership and commitment to excellence that we strive to recruit for our team. The Mission 2 Hire initiative has helped us do that through hiring more than 50 veterans since May and we’re thrilled to boost that number with events like this.”

Since launching Mission 2 Hire, Service King has recruited and hired 57 U.S. Armed Forces veterans and family members within the organization.

The DFW Mission 2 Hire Development Day will begin at 8 a.m. and will be held inside Service King’s Regional Support Center located at 808 S. Central Expressway in Richardson. The event is free to U.S. Armed Forces veterans and spouses.
