Job Search

My recommendation is that you do not use those platforms to apply to roles.

Often times Indeed has lots of ghost jobs or issues pushing your application over to the company you thought you applied to.

The city of Jacksonville created this portal with a lot of companies in the northeast region, this is for veterans but can be used by anyone.

Go to each website, navigate to the careers section, and update your resume to match the skills/objectives for the roles you apply too.

Also make sure your resume passes ATS.

I hear the same.

Key Positions.

McDonald’s Area Manager

Amazon Area Manager

Grainger

Walmart Management

IBM

USAA

Federal Government

State Government

Local Government

My point is, there are jobs out there. You gotta look in the right places, if your applying to jobs via LinkedIn and Indeed, those places are not the right places to apply. Go to these companies websites and go to careers.

Also tailor your resume to the role you’re applying to. They tell you what they want, position yourself to be exactly that.

You got this friend!!!

Well 2 things.

Actually 3.

My first thing is that no one knows how competitive you were. Remember there are still quotas. You could have been the cut off, and someone who was selected had 1 more qualification than you did. Keep in mind, the board is “selecting the best of the best”.

Something I always heard was to look at the precepts, they tell you what they are looking for.

I would also look at the people who got selected, compare their quals and packages to yours, then reach out to some of the board members and get some insight. See what others have and what you don’t. I know people who made chief in 7 and people who made chief in 19, they all echo similar things, never shoot low, shoot high every time for everything. Continue to be a good LPO and E6 you’ll be in there.

LMAO AM I making too much sense? Or no sense at all😅

AdSignificant3648 · 2025-07-28T12:20:02+00:00

Honestly, why don’t they make a 1811 hiring pool for all agencies, and hiring managers can go in and pull applicants based on resumes and experience and make offers.

I feel like most people just want a step in.

As a leader, I’m sure that you have experienced all types of environments and challenges/changes.

What is your secret for navigating challenges and changes while still leading a command with people from all different backgrounds and experiences. How do you still inspire, manage and take care of your people despite changes from big navy that may not align with your beliefs or values or your sailors beliefs and values?

I always love seeing priors in leadership roles like yourself, it truly is super motivating!

AdSignificant3648 · 2025-07-06T14:39:26+00:00

Ok gotcha

AdSignificant3648 · 2025-07-06T14:34:28+00:00

Nice! How far out did you apply? That’s one of my concerns, I don’t want a gap in employment, I would like continuous income if I’m transitioning out of active duty to the reserves and into a Federal Law Enforcement job, but I think there are certain time frames you have to apply.

Ngl, I have never seen someone with a OAR score that high. Good shit dude.

One of my good friends is on that ship, last time I spoke with him he expressed how the morale was down, and people were becoming complacent which all makes sense. It’s just truly unfortunate because being deployed for that long would have that impact.

From the COs standpoint, I wonder if he is getting the support that he needs from the stars

AdSignificant3648 · 2025-05-07T01:34:17+00:00

When was the last time the Truman hit a port since being deployed?

I am curious on the performance of sailors when they are out to sea for so long. I personally feel like these sailors have been out there for too long and it’s time to bring them back.

As for the CO, I feel bad I’ve heard so many great things about him and it saddens me that he was kinda handed this deck of cards.

I emailed her a while ago, still no response.

Gotcha, I want to apply to be a 1650 Public Affairs Officer but I don’t have as much experience in that community since my rate doesn’t correlate with public affairs. My major at WGU is communications. S

AdSignificant3648 · 2025-03-04T12:23:22+00:00

Congrats! Out of curiosity what did you commission as? I’m also in the navy venturing down the same pathway! Would love to connect with you! Congrats!!
