Jobs for Maryland Veterans
May 9, 2014
As a service to our Veteran community,
The Maryland Department of Veterans Affairs 
is committed to sharing notices from 
employers who are 
interested in hiring veterans.  
Notices are shared in a bi-weekly 
'Jobs for Maryland Veterans' email. 
Please contact the employers 
represented in this email directly, 
as the Department does not maintain specific information pertaining to these opportunities. 

Update on occupational and professional licensing for veterans and eligible military spouses:

On April 17, 2013, Governor Martin O'Malley signed the Veterans Full Employment Act of 2013

The Act helps facilitate the process for qualified veteran and military spouses who are actively licensed in other states to obtain certain licenses in Maryland.  The Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing will expedite the license application for all qualified veteran and military spouses. 

For more information on expedited licensing for:
occupational and professional licensing
