Job Fair for Military Spouses and Veterans Comes to Tennessee
The military-to-civilian recruiting firm RecruitMilitary will hold a Career Fair for military spouses and veterans on Jan. 29, 2009 at LP Field in Nashville, Tenn. The event is an opportunity for former service members and military spouses to meet face-to-face with potential employers. LP Field is home to the Tennessee Titans professional football team and the event is from 11 am to 3 pm.
RecruitMilitary welcomes anyone with a military background to attend: veterans who already have civilian work experience, men and women who are transitioning from active duty to civilian life, members of the National Guard and reserves, and military spouses.
This is the first of more than 65 Career Fairs that RecruitMilitary Career Fairs will host across the U.S. 2009. At each fair a team of veteran-friendly organizations will conduct one-on-one interviews with the job seekers.
The employers present at the fairs will include corporate employers, law-enforcement agencies and other government employers, educational institutions, franchisors, veterans service agencies and veterans associations.
Some of the organizations that are scheduled to be at the fair include: Aquinas College, Ascend Intelligence, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Franchise Mart - Franklin, MATCO Tools, Military Sealift Command, and the Military Spouse Corporate Career Network, along with many others.
The invitation to military spouses is yet another indication of the growing appreciation and recognition for the unique role that military spouses play as part of the U.S. military family.
Recent studies have indicated that military spouses generally have less education and career opportunities than their civilian counterparts. A large share of this can be attributed to the demanding military lifestyle, which includes frequent moves and duty stations at rural bases where schools and job opportunities are not as plentiful as in metropolitan areas.
In addition to their inclusion at Career Fairs, military spouses also received important recognition from the DOD when it unveiled its Military Spouse Career Advancement Initiative last year which provided government funds to advance military spouse educational opportunities.
Military spouses have also been getting help from a number of vocational schools, community colleges and universities that have begun offering military spouse scholarships and military spouse discounts. This has allowed military spouses to enroll in educational training programs without the difficulty of paying full tuition, or in some cases, without paying for tuition at all.
Another important educational tool that has emerged for military spouses is online or distance education. This means that military spouses can enroll in a 100% online program and go to school whenever they like – all they need to do is turn on the computer.
Distance education allows military spouses stationed at rural installations to enroll in exactly the courses they need. They can also maintain their current work and family responsibilities without worrying about commuting to class, paying for gas or looking for a parking spot. It's as accessible as having a computer and an Internet connection.
To learn more about online programs, military spouses should be sure to talk with their base ESO, ask other military spouses if they've taken any courses as well as spending some time on the Internet researching military spouse-friendly schools.
