About the Book

Welcome to the new military family! Today's 642,000 military spouses are primarily women (92%), young (31.5 years of age), and engaged in the labor force (66% employed). Over 13% are active duty service members (in dual-military marriages). Over 40% have dependent children, and 12% are currently unemployed and looking for work. These are highly educated, talented, and smart spouses - 88% have some post-high school education, 33% process college degrees, and 15% hold postgraduate degrees.Many military spouses are eager to find interesting jobs or portable careers -- either part-time or full-time -- that contribute to both their family income and personal growth. They also prefer work that gives them flexibility to manage family affairs and function well within a military community that prizes happy, supportive, and financially stable families.Above all, many military spouses wish to obtain meaningful employment. This means finding jobs that fit their particular mix of interests, skills, abilities, and motivations -- their Motivated Abilities and Skills (MAS).But being employed is not easy given limited opportunities available to military spouses and the often restrictive nature of military life -- frequent relocations, family/community obligations, remote locations, state laws affecting out-of-state residents, and the periodic deployments of family members. Indeed, finding or creating a dream job is often something only a few fortunate military spouses are able to achieve.Jam-packed with essential job search information and tips, the second edition of this popular job search guide assists military spouses in quickly finding and keeping a job. Complete with quizzes, examples, and exercises, it helps them: organize key job search informationspecify transferable skills, references, and networkswrite winning resumes, letters, and applicationsconduct job interviews and follow up effectivelysurvive, thrive, and advance on the jobIt also covers important information relating to: education and trainingattitudes and goalsbarriers to employmentjobs and employersfederal jobsInternet resourcesemployment assistanceappointments and addressesDesigned as a personal reference and action companion, this handy 3 7/8" x 4 7/8″ pocket guide easily fits into pockets and handbags.
