Good Prospects: Service industry and fast food service are in demand.
Poor Prospects: Jacksonville has limited industrial capacity. Also, opportunities for entering Federal Civil Service for the first time at Camp Lejeune are limited.
The Career Resource Management Center (CRMC) has been established to provide military personnel and their family members with guidance, counseling and assistance in exploring their options for civilian employment.
Both CRMC and Family Member Employment Assistance Program (FMEAP) offices have a computer laboratory with job vacancy listings. Counselors are available to assist you with career counseling and assessment, resume creation, federal job applications and job searches. For Federal Civil Service applications, be sure to bring with you all employment records and information such as: resumes, federal applications, copy of PCS orders for spouse preference, transcripts, certificates, licenses, etc.
Self-employment opportunities are available to be a childcare provider through the Camp Lejeune Children and Youth Programs.
