Military Spouse Careers

We get it. With over 17% of our nearly 43,000 associates being military spouses, we understand and appreciate the unique life of military families. Your values of loyalty, professionalism and commitment are exactly what we look for in an associate.

Since 2010, the Exchange has hired over 10,000 military spouses, including 5,200 in 2011, while 1,100 spouses received promotions.

  • Want a position in the same category (full time, part time, intermittent)
  • Are PCSing with sponsor
  • Have six months Exchange service
  • Have a rating of 'Satisfactory' or higher on the most recent performance evaluation

For more information on the military spouse programs, please contact our Human Resources Support Center at HRSC@aafes.com.
