Search for a portable career option that allows you to move to another location without having to completely re-establish yourself. A useful way to locate these sorts of portable careers is to network directly with the other working spouses who are stationed at your location. Military spouses can be found teaching online (either at the college or high school level), working for online accounting firms, engaging in online customer service, editing textbooks, or tutoring students online.

This has been reflected in a lot of places and situations in society. Perhaps none more so than in the job market.
