Spouse Employment Program Overview
The Spouse Employment Assistance Program (SEAP) is intended to assist
spouses overcoming the difficulties associated with finding employment,
especially during the relocation process. It provides comprehensive and
standardized employment information and services at Work-Life Offices
throughout the Coast Guard. Transition/Relocation Managers (TRMs) are
available to guide spouses and family members on career planning, job
seeking and resume writing, as well as to help them prepare for interviews
and negotiate offers.
The Coast Guard recognizes that moving every few years creates career
challenges for military spouses, especially when stationed in remote areas.
SEAP offers family members a variety of resources to tackle those
challenges.
The goal of SEAP is to help you learn how to get a job and maintain a career
you enjoy, as a military family member, it is not an employment office or
placement center.
The following assistance and resources are available within the Spouse
Employment Assistance Program:
- Computer access
- Reference library
- General employment information
- Resume assistance
If you don't live near a Work-Life office, many services, such as
coaching and resume reviews, can be done via the phone or email.
