Situation Report
FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. — After a months-long job search following his separation from active duty, former Army Sgt. Curran Mallard has finally been offered a dream position with a local non-profit that helps veterans find jobs helping veterans find jobs, sources confirmed today.
Mallard, 28, accepted a new position with VETS2WORK4VETS2JOBS on Monday, his first salaried position since leaving the Army in September. His duties, according to the V2W4V2J website, will include “working to find work for vets who aren’t working.”
“Basically,” Mallard explained, “I’m responsible for sending out at least 40 emails per week, each with no fewer than five attachments, to keep veterans apprised of job opportunities well outside their skillsets, in a variety of unappealing locales.”
