My husband is quitting his job-of-11-years so I can transfer from the New York area to Spitbrook, NH. Does DEC offer any kind of job-finding assistance to "trailing spouses"? I'm not getting much response from the various recruiters I've called. Kristin Rounds DTN 321-5235

You could try posting his resume in OASS::JOBS, or talk to your
manager at the site you're relocating to. The P&P only addresses
spouses who also work at Digital.

However, the "gotcha" you're up against right now is that most
managers (certainly those in engineering and marketing) are under
pressure to minimize hiring, and to hire from within where ever
possible. Like 425.1 said, put his resum� in JOBS, and ask for
help.

| 425.3 | Try the field | RITA::NANCYVTX | Fri Dec 04 1987 15:33 | 11 | |
When my husband got a new job in California, I applied as a transfer
applicant. There were/are no special promises to you. Because I
had the skills, however, I was immediately hired. I was going OUT
to the field from corporate which is quite favorable compared to
going from the field TO corporate.,i.e., they are ALWAYS looking
for good people in the field. So, if I were you I'de apply to the
Burlington Woods field office, the Bedford NH field office, or,
if desparate, the Metro Boston district. They should have plenty
of openings because now that the freeze is on, its only 'revenue
producing' groups that get req's. Unless, of course, you have some
connections thru him. GOOD LUCK!

| 425.4 | sorry | RITA::NANCYVTX | Fri Dec 04 1987 15:38 | 4 | |
Woops, sorry. I thought YOU were the one looking for a job.
But, the same advice would apply....have him try the field offices.
and again, good luck. ...N
