After I graduated in June 2010 from the University of Maryland I started my job search. I had no luck the first 6 months I was looking. I was searching for military spouse job assistance on my computer one day and came across msccn.org. I decided to send my resume in and figured I had nothing to loose except to not hear anything back which I was already experiencing. Within a few days after I submitted my resume I received an email from MSCCN asking me what type of job I was looking for, if I wanted to volunteer, etc. First we made some changes to my resume. I finally started to get phone calls for interviews. Shortly after that I decided while I was looking for jobs it wouldn't hurt to start volunteering with MSCCN to help me get some experience that would relate to my degree. Read Jenna's story

We recently PCSed to Southern California, and of course I'm staring the job hunt and, because of the economy, I have had a really hard time finding a job.  With the help of MSCCN, I recently found a part time position. MSCCN helped me do the research and also provided me with websites for job openings.  Thank you so much Natasha Jordan for all your help.

I began my job search on my own for about a month. I got really frustrated really quickly from submitting my resume online and never hearing back from employers. When I found MSCCN I was very thankful to know that I had an organization that understood what being a military spouse meant and was willing to be that extra leverage I needed to get the jobs I deserved. Natasha has stood by me every step of the way and has celebrated in my success of finding seasonal work with the potential to be permanent work. Even though I have found a job, we are continuing my job search for my dream job. Without MSCCN I wouldn’t be working right now, I would still be blindly submitting resumes hoping I’d be picked out of the hundreds of applicants. Thank you MSCCN for being such a great resource and advocate for veterans and spouses!
