Show Notes | October 25, 2022 | Episode 150 You know what boils our blood? Military spouses not getting paid what they are worth. Highly educated and qualified people are going from making $100,000 a year to no more than $70,000 when they become a military spouse. What?! That's crazy and unfair. Career-driven milspouses should not have to take a pay cut because they are working remotely or will PCS with their service member every few years. It is wrong to put a cap on military spouse pay because of the sacrifices they must make as a military family. In this special joint episode, VirtForce and Spouse-ly, the e-commerce platform that offers quality products and services from military and first-responder families, are changing the narrative about military spouse pay.

VirtForce introduced Milspouse Kaitlin to gig-based work. Now, she is getting paid per ticket to work for SimplrFlex while she pursues her dream career - working remotely as an accountant.
Show Notes | October 10, 2022 | Episode 148 When looking for remote work on the VirtForce Recruitment Arsenal there are two types of employment status - employee or independent contractor. What's the difference? We have VirtForce's own attorney breaking down the pros and cons of both, so you can figure out which employment classification works best for the kind of remote work you are looking for. It comes down to more freedom or more support. Independent contractors have the flexibility to set their own schedules and choose their own equipment, but they must have the discipline to save for retirement and do their own taxes. For employees, those things are taken care of by the company. Tune in to find out how you can get #hired as an employee or work as an independent contractor. 00:00
Show Notes | August 19, 2022 | Episode 147 Remote work is not all gig-based or part-time.

Milspouse Jennifer Hunter had some misconceptions about remote work. She did not think she would be able to find a steady career with steady income until VirtForce introduced Jennifer to Travelers, the second-largest writer of U.S. commercial property and casualty insurance.

Show Notes | March 21, 2022 | Episode 137 Milspouse Cailey Shivers first approached the remote job search as a numbers game, using an old resume to apply for as many remote jobs as she could, hoping one would stick. When her ideal remote job came open, Cailey changed her strategy. Coming straight from a government civilian job, she was using her federal resume to apply, which didn't make sense for an executive assistant role at Education First, a completely remote policy organization focused on improving public education. So, Cailey did a deep dive into the VirtForce Podcast and revamped her resume over a single weekend using VirtForce's free Resume Boot Camp course. Despite being on maternity leave, VirtForce Founder Kimber Hill responded with the most valuable in-depth critique with lots of constructive and actionable advice. Kimber told Cailey she thought she would be a great fit for this role. That extra boost and encouragement was what Cailey needed.

Show Notes | March 7, 2022 | Episode 135 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.
