However, do not overlook the 2/3 of military spouses who do not live on or
near a military installation. They may be spouses of Guard or Reserve members
or spouses who are temporarily geographically separated while the military
member is deployed.

Also, there are caregivers of the war-wounded who have relocated to be
near their spouse or family member while he or she is undergoing medical
treatment.


How do military spouses compare to other job candidates from the
general population?

We wondered the same thing. Although military spouses are individually unique
and collectively reflect many aspects of the general population, they were
found overall to be better educated than their civilian counterparts and even
than their military husbands or wives! Sometimes viewed as job-hoppers due
to their frequent relocations, in reality they do not change jobs more often
than the general population. They often bring flexibility, adaptabilty, resiliency,
and a global perspective to the workplace. Please view an article (based on
the data) called 3 Threats to Your Job Seach here.


Why doesn't MSCCN provide scholarships?
As mentioned above, military spouses overall are well-educated. Those who
want or need more education have multiple scholarship resources available
through DoD, a variety of military organizations, local community, and
educational facilities. MSCCN concentrates on job placement opportunities
while offering a variety of training and certification courses, mentoring,
and volunteer experience.


What if I only have a few employees but would still like to post a
position and hire a qualified military spouse?
