Have you moved somewhere new and can't find a job? You fill out hundreds of job applications before getting a job offer. This happened to Chris Parrett, who is now working in people management with the Space Force. She filled out 123 job applications with a Master's Degree and middle management experience before getting a job offer.

Many spouses have amazing skill sets that get fragmented and interrupted over the course of their service member's career. There aren't good conditions to support them in a career while supporting their service members, but Space Force is working on this. Spouses and family members are talented, extremely resilient, already understand the military way of life, and they deserve to have that path open to them, should they want to have a career.
