Business Engagement Team

Business Services Specialists are located in the five Workforce Investment regions. In addition to the Business Services staff, are Local Veterans’ Employment Representatives (LVER) that specialize in assisting employers to hire veterans. If a LVER is not located in your specific region, one of our Business Service Specialists can provide assistance with hiring veterans.

Our Business Services Specialists provide recruitment assistance to help you meet your hiring goals and promote your job openings. We can assist by:

  • Hosting a recruitment event at the American Job Center or location of your choice
  • Informing you of upcoming Job Fairs
  • Distributing job openings through our vast network of job seekers and partner agencies
  • Promoting job openings on Social Media
  • Providing outreach to veterans, persons with disabilities and additional Untapped Talent Pools

You will be required to create a free employer recruiting account with CTHires, the CT State Job Bank.
