Waco, TX. October 23, 2014 -Talent management solutions provider, Profiles International, will sponsor the first Quebec Conference for the Military Employment Transition (MET) program October, 29th – 30th at the Régiment de Maisonneuve in Montreal, Quebec.

At the event, more than thirty national and provincial companies and educational institutions will gather with a common focus – to hire Canadian Armed Forces Veterans and Reservists. Attendees of the event will consist of employer partners, transitioning military members and veterans. Several high-demand panel discussions will take place, where veterans and employer partners can meet one-on-one and network.

“Military men and women possess some amazing qualities that Corporate Canada needs,” said Blake Goldring, chairman and founder of Canada Company. “When you ‘Hire-a-Vet,’ you hire someone who is professional, dedicated, loyal, and above all mission-focused. I know, because I hire vets.”

Other major corporations sponsoring and attending the event include; Target Canada (Platinum Sponsor), McDonald’s Canada, Accenture, Bell Canada, Honeywell, Walmart Canada, and Banque Nationale.

The event is complimentary to attend, but attendees must register in advance for planning purposes.
