Can I work at home with kids?
How to ask an employer about a noisy home environment during your interview!
Army Spouse Larrissa Pearce listened to a TED Talk that said women often don't apply for jobs unless they meet 100% of the criteria, which is not always true of their male counterparts. Men will take a chance on themselves even if they have only 3 of the 5 qualities listed in the job description.
That truth bomb lit a fire under Larrissa. It gave her the push she needed to take a chance on herself.
She took 30 seconds of courage to go for it and applied for a full-time remote position with Trusted Health, a tech savvy virtual company that places travel nurses all over the country.
Larrissa couldnโt believe she was able to find a full-time remote job in her field of study and expertise while stationed OCONUS in Germany.
Tune in to hear how Larrisa harnessed the power of networking and got #hired in a tech-savvy role.

Milspouse Anacani Walters was successfully running PHAT MerMaids, her standup paddle board fitness business in Hawaii, but when the COVID-19 pandemic put group fitness classes on hold, she needed to pivot to remote work.
While her business is her passion, Anacani needed to find another form of income to support her household.
She doesn't look at getting a part-time job as a failure in her own business but having the passion to do whatever it takes to keep her dreams alive.
Tune in to hear how Anacani used VirtForce to land not only one amazing remote opportunity, but two!

"Trust the system." That's something milspouse Christine Falvo has learned in her new role working remotely for Travelers, and the same applies for VirtForce.
"Trust what you see on VirtForce," she says. The jobs are solid. They have been vetted. VirtForce has done the work. If you see an opportunity that interests you - apply!
VirtForce was created to help milspouses like Christine learn to systemize the remote work process. The primary goal is to streamline access to vetted virtual employment that will complement the mobile military lifestyle.
Christine found just that, and she sees the payoff especially with a company like Travelers Insurance that offers incredible benefits and an incredible work culture.
Tune in to hear firsthand from Christine why onboarding with Travelers has been one of the best work experiences she has ever had.
