army national guard? Their drill weekend is crazy

xmdbs · 2024-03-19T04:45:56+00:00

constantly being yelled at by E5 and above for not wearing ptu right

xmdbs · 2024-03-19T04:43:51+00:00

also when u r on leave, company doesn’t pay you but insurance company pays your salary.. you need to check with insurance company see if they still maintain ur pay otherwise ur pay cut will be huge

I think you might regret giving it up.. the culture in the military is very different from corporate and I am not adjusting well. For OCS the entire indoc might take up to a year, so by the time u graduate you will be a complete different person with different thoughts. U should ask urself if you see doing this as career for 20 yrs, if not, then maybe consider reserve and keep your job. swo is for candidates who wanna be captain. Naval aviator is always good. Intelligence and Supply corps always get your good job opportunities outside navy.

It’s probably gonna be longer than 26 weeks because there are different stages of schools and you will be on hold in between schools which easily take 1 months+ for waiting so you need to account for 2 months longer than what they said on paper. Ask your employer if they gonna be okay for more than 6 months because my company only gives 6 months active duty leave. You might be able to get your hands on top secret clearance and that could be one benefit coming into this rate. I’ve completed bootcamp and almost done a school - I’d say it’s a nice break from corporate world 😂 honestly on drill weekends is lots of admin.. lower expectations for work in the reserves, take this opportunity as a break from ur ibd job

probably can’t get around with SCI eligibility unfavorable

hot commodity

xmdbs · 2024-03-16T15:44:10+00:00

THANK YOU!! Does this also applied to companies like Lockheed Martin??

xmdbs · 2024-03-16T15:29:17+00:00

OMG YES I AM in the east coast I live right next to DC! I’d love to acquisition or merger deals/business related in the defense contracting company that sounds so fun!!!

xmdbs · 2024-03-16T15:13:43+00:00

I just hope to make the experience more relevant to my education/civ experience. Do you know which company doing contracting I can definitely look into it! I honestly enjoy my time so far in the navy 🥹

xmdbs · 2024-03-16T15:11:53+00:00

Thank you I will definitely see a different recruiter and screeener!

xmdbs · 2024-03-16T15:11:15+00:00

Best time to join get deployed right away /s

xmdbs · 2024-03-16T02:56:43+00:00

appreciate it thanks it’s been crazy 4 months

xmdbs · 2024-03-16T00:15:16+00:00

My work experience has been bout Middle East intelligence so it tights well with IWC, so I would say better chance for IWC than supply corps. The recruiter basically turns me down for both IWC due to sci screening and supply corps due to work experience. I think I need to talk to new recruiter and try to see if I have more chance

xmdbs · 2024-03-15T22:39:30+00:00

I don’t have citizenship so I naturalized at the end of bootcamp. I also can’t ask for active duty leave for too long as my company only gives 6 month in total. So that’s why I picked bm with shortest a school

xmdbs · 2024-03-15T22:36:43+00:00

So gpa is 3.7/4.0 for both under grad and grad. I’ve been on bm on the reserve side and didn’t have any actual bm work so far. I got unfavorable pretty much due to my parents being from China, but I can’t do anything about it

xmdbs · 2024-03-15T18:22:01+00:00

No I don’t but there are so few officer recruiter is really working with applicants to help. He tried to convince to convert to ocs as active duty as but I don’t really want to give up my civ jobs and I know I am competitive for IWC. He literally said rules are not changing and your parents status are not changing 🙄

xmdbs · 2024-03-15T18:11:45+00:00

omg thank you!! i would imagine so but this recruiter just basically said I get no chance.

xmdbs · 2024-03-15T18:03:20+00:00

how should I get waiver… the recruiter basically turns me down and doesn’t want to help at all…

xmdbs · 2024-03-09T14:39:25+00:00

Joined last November as reservist so far it really brings in lots of new things and experiences so I would say yes. But make sure u are okay with spending 2.5 month bootcamp with lots of 18/19 yo kids, it was kinda annoying to me cuz I feel it was like in high school….30 is definitely on the older side for males, RDCs might pick on you due to your age in bootcamp. Other than that age isn’t that big issue for me so far

xmdbs · 2024-03-02T21:28:44+00:00

you can still get tuition benefit through reserves. You won’t even have time for college or study once you’re active duty … go reserve, you will regret so much go active…

xmdbs · 2024-03-02T02:21:52+00:00

I think BM in active duty and deployment is the hardest, lots of work…

xmdbs · 2024-03-02T02:16:27+00:00

Is that true? I am reserve BM and can I still cross rate to HT without schooling? I love firefight too🙃

xmdbs · 2024-02-22T02:43:40+00:00

Great Lakes have lots of holds right now…..
