Axalta Participates in the Macomb/St. Clair Michigan Works Employability Boot Camp for Veterans

Axalta Coating Systems’ Mount Clemens manufacturing plant participated in the Macomb/St. Clair Michigan Works Employability Boot Camp for Veterans.  The purpose of the week-long event was to assist veterans with resume writing, interview preparation and networking.  “Axalta supports efforts to help veterans transition to the workforce,” said Virginia Gronley, Axalta Learning and Development Advisor, who was invited to speak at the event. “This is one of the reasons that we are more than happy to share tips and suggestions from an employer’s point of view that may help veterans land interviews and, optimally, get jobs.”

“It’s nice to hear from a company on what we, as veterans, can do better to become prepared for employment,” said Veteran Ross Palombit from Sterling Heights.  “It was beneficial to bring in Axalta’s perspective for veteran job seekers, like myself.  It’s nice to know that Axalta has made a pledge to help reduce veteran unemployment.”
