I think companies that post on these sites understand all that, and I won't have to face that hurdle. Two months ago, a potential employer told House he didn't think he could hire her because he didn't know how long she would stay, she said. The other sites, both owned by commercial companies, are open to spouses of any service. Transition Assistance Online also offers a monthly e-mail newsletter, called Jobs4Spouses, with job searching tips and resources. All of these services are free to military spouses.
Military children can also use the gateway for job searches.
Both are primarily geared for veterans looking for jobs, but have expanded to help spouses. We tell companies that spouses may move somewhere in the world where they have a branch. Spouses can search the sites and post resumes free. Except for the Air Force site, companies pay a fee to be members, adding job postings to the gateway or collecting resumes of potential employees. On all the sites, spouses' resumes are available only to the listed companies and are protected by passwords.
