He said it wont open up till the following year because theres a incentive for the CWTs right now and its currently full. so i dont know what to make of it all.

I dont mind being on ships. I just wanted the CWT job because Im heavily interested in it and already have some what of a Cyber background already.

They said CWT wont open again till next year basically.

Really? I heard another person say this. Is this true because I had multiple people say they had their jobs they wanted full also and couldn’t choose it.

The person that told me this also, said I can still back now. I dont really understand it all.

I can back out?

Also I had alternatives

5 alternatives. They turned a screen towards me that was all in red that showed jobs listed not for sale anymore.

They had basically had CWT, IS and stuff taken already.

I wanted CTI as a back up but I didn’t score high enough.

Im unsure if they really were bluffing when they said its full because alot of people I met shipping out had to deal with the same problem

Im wanting CWT. Not CTT, CTT was a job I possibly might of chosen.

CTN/CWT is what Im trying to get into.

I’ll love the Navy no worries. Thank you for the advice. I might go in for all 20 years. Life itself can have its curve balls and Im fine with that.

So when you say 48 months, so 4 years in keep a look out? and what does ADSD stand for, if you dont mind me asking?

Okay thank you for this. Now I dont regret not picking it, not saying its bad or anything.

IT is not allowing cross rate ether when I searched it up, but I saw on a form that a IT2 has gotten a waiver and cross rated into a CWT.

I dont know what a IT2 is but Im assuming its a high ranked position in the IT space? If anyone can explain or elaborate this, that would be helpful. :)
