Ag Warriors - A New Career program for Veterans

Ag Warriors is a program that assists military men and women in the search of careers within the agriculture and food industries. AgCareers.com was recently asked to continue the growth of the Ag Warriors program, which was originally launched by the International Agri-Center in 2012. The program, which has provided veterans with training and career building resources, will be continued by AgCareers.com, the leading online career site and human resource service provider for agriculture, food, natural resources and biotechnology.

“In an effort to better serve returning veterans and their career needs, we have partnered with AgCareers.com to continue to grow the Ag Warriors program,” said Jerry Sinift, CEO for the International Agri-Center. “The program has grown exponentially in the past year and we believe the time has come to entrust the program to experts in the career building field. AgCareers.com is a highly respected authority in the ag industry and they have our full support as they continue to serve our veterans.”

AgCareers.com is focused on attracting qualified job seekers for the more than 3,600 jobs posted on the career portal each month. Headquartered in Clinton, North Carolina, AgCareers.com services job seekers and employers throughout North America from offices in California, Iowa and Ontario, and has a growing international presence.

“AgCareers.com is honored to be chosen to continue the efforts of the International Agri-Center’s Ag Warriors program,” said Eric Spell, president of AgCareers.com. “We are excited to open the door for both employers and veterans to connect regarding employment and careers within the agribusiness and food industries through AgCareers.com. We view the program as a way to honor veterans’ service and assist them in taking the next steps to career success.”

AgCareers.com will continue to address the needs of returning veterans and provide them with job searching resources to reach their career goals.

“The agriculture industry has many opportunities for veterans and veterans possess many of the skills and qualifications employers within the industry are looking for,” said Spell. “We are excited to build upon the Ag Warriors program’s current success to give back to our very deserving military men and women.”
