+<br>JOINT BASE LEWIS-McCHORD, Wash. - Staff Sergeant Danika Nolan's military exit date is a couple of weeks away, and she's preparing for the transition at Joint Base Lewis-McChord.<br>
+<br>As part of a group of about 30 task hunters, she attended a hiring fair Jan. 30 that showcased Washington State profession opportunities at JBLM's Hawk Career Center.<br>
+<br>"I just attempt to take benefit of all the resources and services that the (Transition Assistance Program) Center has to offer, simply to make certain I'm as prepared as possible," she said.<br>
+<br>The focus of the task fair on state [employment](https://www.rotaryjobmarket.com), rather than [employment](http://abarca.work) in various markets, made it different than others on the installation. Sponsored by the Veterans Employee Resource Group, WorkSource and the TAP, it started with a panel of veterans from state agencies, who shared their experiences and answered questions. Following the panel, employers from state firms were readily available to answer employing questions, stated Frank Handoe, deputy shift services manager for the TAP.<br>
