BOTHELL, Wash., Nov. 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Veteran's Day
is fast approaching and Allstate Insurance Company announced today
its continued advocacy to hire Veterans or current Service Members
and Spouses. "These individuals have demonstrated commitment,
resourcefulness and integrity on behalf of our country – invaluable
characteristics Allstate Agencies seek when looking for new
talent," says HR Manager Jeff
Mowell.
Allstate's National Veteran's Program offers the opportunity to
build a solid career with an Allstate Agency, and a good life to go
with it. Allstate will teach transitioning job seekers how to
build résumés and interview — valuable skills that military
veterans and spouses can use to kick start a new career.
Participants that complete Allstate's education course qualify upon
passing the licensing exam to earn a $500 completion bonus. In addition, Agents will
receive funds to reimburse staff for insurance licensing test and
application fees.
On a local level, Agents particularly passionate about the cause
will be partnering with Seattle's
USO Center for Innovation on December
7th for an Employment Readiness
Workshop. Agents and other Allstate employees will be on site
for tips on hiring insights, professional networking and interview
preparation.

career direction can network and learn more about the Allstate
opportunity at two upcoming career fairs:
