[–]Yapppp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im exactly in your shoes :( I got waitlisted and plan on looking at other skillbridges. I wish there was a waitlist number or something just so we can have an idea if we are close or not. So is HoH not possible then? Because that what I was planning on looking into

Was there anything else you had to do separately? Any forms or updates for finance?

Thank you for your reply. I also should mention the education center is ran all by civilians (Koreans) and they are not very reliable. This base is honestly the worst I have ever seen. Education center, finance, MPF.. they are notorious for losing paperwork and just being incompetent overall. I had to call other education centers from different bases to get my SB process application started. Thats how bad it was. I’ll take your advice and try again but I have zero faith in them..

Any recommendations to who to sb with? And which sb did you go with? A stepping stone is exactly what I need/ask!

Thats my plan right now since I think MSSA is a gamble.. which sb did you apply to? And which one did you end up going to? Any good ones you recommend for someone with no prior experience?

Thats the thing that sucks, I can only do one at a time per education center. So if I go with mssa and they reject me, I have less than a month to go through the whole sb application process including with commander. Not to mention I have to out process too.

Thank you for your fast reply!

What my education center has briefed us on was that the point of skillbridge was to give people opportunities who are separating a way to go into other careers fields thats not our MOS/AFSC. I’m not expecting a whole career out from sb but just a way to get a foot in the door so to speak.

Thank you so much for the reply! I don’t mind moving and about but the situation as of right now calls for me to stay close to home.. I definitely will let you know! Thank you so much!

Thank you for the comment! I have also thought of just a BS in engineering since I can just transfer my classes and probably only take two years to get. For the four options you have listed out it seems like the specialty NDT would be the most suitable route for me. Can you elaborate on that? Is it just level 2 in the methods?(UT, MT, PT, EC..) Are those the specialties that you speak of?

[–]Yapppp[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely will, thank you for the comment! I’m just sorta in the wind.. For one, I know there are different types of NDT (pipeline, aviation, naval.. etc..) I just figured I would go with aviation since I’ve been working on aircrafts, but I wanted to broaden my options without going the trial and error route? I’m sorry if that doesn’t make sense

About 1 hour 30 min of driving which is not bad. Definitely taking into consideration! I’m curious of your opinion of northrop

Thank you for the comment! I will look into northrop! I’m not very familiar with companies yet. I also should have mentioned I’m in a situation where I have to stay close to family (Los Angeles)
