What is Military Spouse Preference (MSP) and how does it help military spouses with finding a new job after a PCS. It was created to help eligible military spouses compete for certain federal jobs after a PCS move and reduce the career instability that follows military life from base to base.
check out the article shared on MilSpouses.com. https://milspouses.com/career-and-pay/military-spouse-hiring-preference?utm_source=Military_Audience&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=milspouses&_bhlid=3aaa208929090b06215469f131700bfe03b919c5

Military Spouse Preference can help spouses compete for federal jobs, but many families still misunderstand how the benefit actually works.
