How More Companies Are Tapping Into the Military Spouse Talent Pipeline
Test-drive top talent: Hire smarter with Squared Away

When I started Squared Away, the goal was to help military spouses find flexible, meaningful work. Along the way, we built something bigger, a talent pipeline so reliable, companies now use it to source hires across their entire org chart.
What began as a virtual assistant agency has evolved into a sourcing solution for:
Customer success
Operations support
Executive coordination
HR & recruiting
Special projects and more
But here’s what really sets us apart: You don’t have to hire on blind faith.
Companies can work with our assistants through Squared Away first, before fully committing to bringing them on internally.
It’s like test-driving a top-tier hire before signing the lease.
✅ Low-risk.
✅ High-reward.
✅ No awkward onboarding flops.
✨ What Companies Are Saying
“We came to Squared Away for help with admin… and left with a whole new way of hiring.”
– Chief of Staff, Seed-stage Startup
“Military spouses are some of the most reliable, coachable, and hard-working hires we’ve made. Our team is better because of them.”
– Director of Ops, PE Portfolio Company
Need a candidate who’s:
✅ Remote-ready
✅ Flexible but focused
✅ Experienced and detail-driven
✅ A cultural add, not just a fit?
We’ve got a whole talent bench for that.
Looking to Hire Outside the Box?
We’re now helping select partners source military spouse candidates beyond virtual assistant roles and it’s changing the way they build their teams.
If you’re tired of bland resumes, quiet quitters, and job-hoppers…
It might be time to tap into a talent pool that’s been quietly thriving behind the scenes.
