One of the major concerns of relocating families is that the working spouse often has to leave a job behind and start over with new employment. Any time a family member is in a job search, tensions rise, affecting the ability of the family to settle in to their new community, not to mention the transferee's ability to concentrate on the job at hand.

A savvy Realtor can provide a rescue by sharing a new online resource, CareerBookstore, which has introduced its new Spouse Employment Assistance Program. The new service allows employers and relocation professionals to purchase prepaid bookstore vouchers on behalf of their relocating employees or clients.

The spouses of transferred employees can use the prepaid voucher to buy any of the more than 500 career titles which include such topics as resume writing, interviewing, networking, starting a business, women's careers, and more.

According to store owner Steven Wood, "Transferring an employee today often means relocating the two careers of a working couple. Our new voucher program provides these trailing spouses with recognition, support, and customized job-search resources they need when relocating to a new destination."
