5.0 out of 5 stars Essential Information for Military Spouses (& Others), August 10, 1998

This review is from: New Relocating Spouse's Guide to Employment: Options & Strategies in the U.S. and Abroad (Paperback)

This is an excellent book and one which receives my highest recommendation for military spouses. It is absolutely packed with information, and contains hundreds of valuable references. It is an outstanding resource, one you shouldn't be without! It gives full importance and attention to the spouse's career. Although it was published 5 years ago, it is more current than many others published since in terms of its assessment of the job market, and coverage of innovative strategies for career development (not just jobs.)
