Spouse employment preference is a preference for employment in
DoD appropriated fund civilian positions for which the military spouse is best
qualified at grade levels GS-5 through GS/GM-15 (or equivalent wage system
positions). Preference for non-appropriated fund (NAFI) positions (i.e., NEX,
MWR) is at grade UA-8 and below (and equivalent positions) and for those jobs
paid at an hourly rate. Depending on qualifications and experience, the spouse
is afforded serious consideration for competitive civil service vacancies. If
the spouse has previous government work experience, preference can be exercised
up to the highest grade level ever held. Spouses of active duty military
personnel of the DOD with personal civil service status (i.e. current career or
career-conditional employees, reinstatement eligibles) should apply to the Human
Resource Office for available positions. This office can explain in detail the
application procedures and the candidate examining process.Civil Service is the
on-base employer. If you are interested in a civil service or NAF
position position please contact the following.
