For Love of Country and Construction

Written By Ashley Michie

Saluting all veterans who have served this great country – including those who now serve our customers – is an honored November tradition at CarolinaPower.

“We are proud to be a military friendly employer. We have employees at all four of our locations who are former military,” said Amy Jenkins, Human Resources Manager, who happens to be the mother of a veteran.  “Construction can be an ideal career fit for veterans on many levels. In fact, our electrical apprenticeship program is a big draw for veterans – whether they are just leaving the military or looking for a rewarding career change a few years later.”
