Club Overview

The MilSpouse Job Club will offer a training platform where military spouses and veterans can learn to network, develop their job strategy, and receive support from other participants.  

During each meeting there will be informational resources and activity sessions designed toward improving the job readiness and search processes.  Participants will be able to share their experiences, seek and offer advice from other participants, and give and receive encouragement.  The club will:

  • Offer a networking opportunity.  Participants can share contacts and job leads.
  • Educate participants on job search strategies.  Focus weekly on different job search topics including Organization and Time Management, Resume and Cover Letters, Marketing Yourself, Job Fairs, Interviewing, Follow Up, and Comparing Offers.
  • Develop job buddy groups to encourage each other and share experiences.
  • Develop professional groups where participants can collaborate and go to professional networking meetings together, so they don't have to go alone.
  • Help participants with career development by introducing resources for educational opportunities, career development, work at home options, and informational interviews.
  • Introduce guest speakers to offer advice and expertise on job search, interviewing, and career development.
  • Work with local companies and hiring managers to give job seekers tips and to draw from the group for hiring.
  • Club Graduation where hired participants share their success stories.
  • Job swap program for the participants moving to a new area.
  • Job search assistance, interactive activities, corporate networking, volunteer to career program, internships, virtual job shadowing, and other programs offered through the military family centers and the MSCCN.

Join us for the fun!  Bring your resume and your questions, and come prepared to make headway in your job search or career advancement plan.
