Although Hampton Roads has many military bases representing all
military services and many Federal government offices, spouses will find Federal
employment very competitive. This is in part due to base realignments
requiring Federal employees to relocate. It is wise to begin your job
search immediately. Department of the Navy employment information can
be obtained by calling the Department of the Navy Human Resource Office -
East. If you have access to a fax machine, you can use the fax-back
option to receive printed information on the positions listed on the Job
Hotline. You can also look for government employment opportunities on
their website.
Stop by any of the Fleet and Family Support Centers of
Hampton Roads and talk with an Employment Specialist about resources,
opportunities, and application procedures for acquiring a government job.
