Employment Service has a team of professionals who understand the unique challenges of military life.
If you are the partner of a Military member, we can:
- tell you about the local labour market
- help you tailor your resume and cover letter to make it attractive to local markets
- offer information about programs, services and training that are available to you
If your profession requires a unique license (e.g. hairdresser, teacher, nurse, etc.) we can tell you more about the requirements in our area, and how you can apply. For more information, call us at either location.
