There are a TON! When I was creating a class on veteran recruitment for recruiters, I found so many resources online. Off the top of my head, I actually remember that AT&amp;T offers work from home jobs for military spouses. I'll see if I can find more resources for you.

Spend some time searching for RP members using key words in an industry you want to get into or locations in areas you want to live. There is not better advocate than another veteran. Reaching out to vets has been very helpful for me as I transition. Just send a connection request and ask questions, you'll be surprised how many people will take the time to speak with you. You can work with a company like <a target="_blank" href="http://workscouts.com/">http://workscouts.com/</a> to try and find a good job using some of the criteria you develop. Also, you can work with a mentor to help by using a company like: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.veterati.com/">https://www.veterati.com/</a>. There are a lot of free resources to help with transition, don't plan in a bubble. <div class="pta-link-card answers-template-image type-default"> <div class="pta-link-card-picture"> <img src="https://d26horl2n8pviu.cloudfront.net/link_data_pictures/images/000/041/680/qrc/logo.png?1455213242"> </div> <div class="pta-link-card-content"> <p class="pta-link-card-title"> <a target="blank" href="http://workscouts.com/">WorkScouts</a> </p> <p class="pta-link-card-description"></p> </div> <div class="clearfix"></div> </div> CW3 Private RallyPoint Member Thu, 11 Feb 2016 12:58:37 -0500 2016-02-11T12:58:37-05:00 Response by CPT Pedro Meza made Feb 11 at 2016 12:58 PM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-are-good-employment-resources-for-military-spouses?n=1295201&urlhash=1295201 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Start with the Internet to research possible job site backgrounds, because the more you know about a potential employer the better you can fine tune your resume.

Lots of links on the web to show how that's done. We've hired a number of them for term positions knowing they mostly hang around 2-3 years. If it's a twilight tour, then a permanent position is typically more desired. That said, don't shy away from terms as management tends to figure a way to keep good people around. CAPT Kevin B.
