4 Blogs You Should be Reading this Summer

If your job search has been on hiatus these summer months, there’s no time like now to slowly get yourself back into the game. Spending some of your time perusing the following websites and blogs is a great way to begin thinking about your job search again. These are some of our favorites:

1. The MSCCN Blog: We’ll just go ahead and get our shameless plug out of the way. We’re pretty bias, and our blog is still pretty new, but it is one space on the internet that is focused entirely on your training and career needs. So, check us out (which we assume you already do because you are reading this post), and share our blog with your friends (please and thank you).
2. The Fairy God Boss Site: This site is focused on women in the workforce, but their advice overlaps with issues military spouses (regardless of gender) face. Interested in work-life balance, confidence, and career progression? Check out this website for lots of good information and tips.
3. Flexjobs Job Search Tips & Blog: Raise your hand if you believe one solution to military spouse employment issues is flexible work! We’re right there with you, and flexbjobs offers lots of great information about working remotely and flexibly. Their blog regularly features resources specifically for military spouses too!
4. The Resume Place’s Blog: This blog is all about federal employment, a subject in which we as military spouses are particularly interested. There’s been a lot of change (with more to come) when it comes to federal employment, preference, and military spouse hiring, and The Resume Place tends to have its finger on the pulse of OPM. While you’re there, also check out their free resources.
