Military Community

I always default to LinkedIn, but being in the U.S. military and overseas, it is quite difficult to find a job. For example, I am stationed in Europe and if I find a remote job it would have to be federal or I'd be paying US taxes and European taxes (WAMP WAMP)... and if I find a US remote job that isn't federal I would have to ensure it would be enough to pay taxes and take care of my family. Not to mention the time difference. It's hard to show an employer that I would be willing to adapt to any working hours just to make sure my family can be finacially stable.

thank you! I read the page information and although it is great to have certifications, it comes at a cost and military life is not a luxury most think (including me at first). I have my PMP, which the military offers one free certification. I am also pursuing other certifications but I will have to come out of pocket for them. This becomes overwhelming when you put your time and money into career development to be rejected over and over because of your location (i.e US:Europe). I appreciate provding the link though, I hope to see PMI explore more opportunities to the military community as we need all the help we can get! I'd love to get involved with the community, so maybe I can start there and try to make a difference!

This is great information! Thanks Mayte!
