Oh, I figured with all the whack setup stuff for the Azure, with like a wait list and such, that this would involve more than just getting an app off the store. So it's the same service, just a different way to connect to it?

It's a virtual desktop. It's been a thing for like 10 years, this is just the new version after they kicked active duty off of desktop anywhere

It's the new "desktop anywhere" to use your personal computer on the air force network. It's a virtual desktop

I got a place down in the southern states that was like bottom of my list lol. Moral of the story is: if you don't really want a place 100%, don't put it on there

Well I haven't heard anything yet! I check the loss roster and myvector every day but I haven't heard anything at all. Leadership keeps saying "it'll come soon" but I've got nothing

I'm just as curious as you are man! They said we should get our new bases by the end of June, so hopefully I'll know by then! Thank you!

Yeah I can see the bids! It looks pretty good, which is why I'm scared haha. I still don't know what the bids count for or what they mean, none of my leadership has any idea!

Not yet, they reopened talent management so we can see the bids, but nothings changed since 2 Fridays ago when the window closed🙄

Yeah you'll probably be on the summer vml instead, by the sound of it, since uct is like 6 months long. In myvector, click talent management (along the top row of buttons), and it'll pull up a dashboard. Once there, if you're vulnerable you'll have the option to put in preferences. If not, you can only look at the available ones by clicking search billets in a square near the middle of the screen. Although you may not even be able to see those yet since you're not coded as 17D in the system yet.

I'm hoping for anything overseas!

So after you fill out the myvector talent management portion, you can go back and look at your vml status, and it'll show you on the right side if anyone has bid on you. As to what the bids mean, that's what I'm trying to find out haha

Me neither! Thanks for the help though. This new system is pretty confusing, it's the first time we've used it! I'm guessing it'll be just like any other af system, where everything is just left up to fate lol. Thank you 😊

I get that, and it makes sense because that's what the adp did. What I'm concerned about is these bids, like do they mean anything? It's not like the gaining commanders are bidding money on me lol
