GERMANY RESETTLEMENT AND EMPLOYMENT FAIR
09/04/2010
March saw the biggest resettlement event hosted by RRC Herford in Germany so far!
The Resettlement and Employment Fair combined their annual Germany Information Day and UK Industry Awareness Day and also added international employers.
In total there were 60 stands; half UK/international and half German companies and organisations and was attended by over 400 Service leavers.
The event also introduced "Network Germany" where Service leavers could speak to veterans to share experiences of settling in Germany. Many companies also brought Service leavers to promote vacancies and again, to share their experiences.
