Thinking about a career with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)? There’s no better way to get your questions answered than a face-to-face conversation with a VA Careers recruiter—and luckily, we’ve got a full slate of upcoming events across the nation.

Our recruiters will be eagerly waiting to chat with you about the rewards of a VA career and how you can have a big impact on the life of a Veteran. Review the events below, mark your calendar and take the first step toward a fulfilling career serving our nation’s heroes.

Improve patient outcomes

The Psych Congress, held in New Orleans, Louisiana, is the nation’s largest practical psychopharmacology conference, now in its 39th year. It brings together over 3,500 mental health clinicians for five days of case‑based, evidence‑driven education to improve patient outcomes.

VA recruiters will be on standby September 16-18 (booth #908) to answer your questions and provide insight into what it’s like working at the largest integrated health care system in the U.S. Learn more online.

Advance oncology care

Join the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) this September 27-29 in Boston, Massachusetts, to explore the latest advances in radiation therapy research, clinical practice and technology.

While you’re there, meet with a VA recruiter (booth #1337) who can share more about how you can join our mission of service. Learn more about this exciting event online.

Collaborate with experts in your field

This September 27-29 in Washington, D.C., attend the American College of Surgeons (ACS) Clinical Congress for education, networking and the latest surgical innovation relevant to members of the House of Surgery. Learn from distinguished experts, hear about groundbreaking procedures and research, network with peers from around the globe, and gain clinical and non-clinical knowledge and skills that you can immediately put into practice.
