Hey folks,
I submitted my first few applications for Guard spots the past couple weeks and wanted to know if it’s typical to hear back one way or another from units? Trying to gauge if no news is good news, or not hearing anything back yet probably means no interview.
Thanks!

In my experience having applied at many units, it’s a crap shoot – each unit is different. You can always give them a call to see when their rush weekends are… this will give them a chance to put your face to your name which may help your application get selected. Either way – if this is what you want, don’t give up. Additionally, don’t…

I agree. 50/50 you get a call back if you are not selected for an interview. Unfortunately there is no standard practice when it comes to call backs. It is unit dependent and has a lot to do with the amount of applicants the unit receives and the amount of time the hiring POCs have to dedicate to feedback for non-selection, right or…

Makes sense! Yeah, I went through all the old board results and it looks like there were around 20 unsponsored selects over the past calendar year. I’m not sure of total number of applicants to know the what that selection rate is but it feels pretty decent.
I’m not super picky on airframe, but my wife has asked me to try as best as possible…

@luke.beer This is in line with what my recruiter has told me as well. Best of luck on the most board!
Have you started rushing units yet? I would love to hear about your experience unsponsored if you’ve started

I think this is right in line with what I expected and my course of action moving forward. I’m just about wrapped up with my application and will be putting in for individual units, but as things shake out with rush/interviews, unsponsored may be the good move later down the line

Hey folks,
I was looking to connect with someone who’s gone through the AFRC Unsponsored board process. The recruiter I’ve been working with mentioned it to me in passing, and I’ve read about it on MilRecruiter, but I’ve got some questions about actually finding a unit if you get selected unsponsored and how that process works.
Specifically: how…

Hey folks,
Just looking for any recommendations on books or podcasts about Air Force aviation, specifically the tanker community so C-130, C-17 or C-5.
I am familiar with TAP and have listened to the episode with Slap, which I enjoyed.
Thanks

My name is Ray. I’m 26 years old living in the southeast, and I’m just in the beginning stages of this whole process, looking to apply for C-130 and C-17 units on the east coast.
My background is in wildland fire and emergency management. If we’re being candid, I always thought planes were cool but never had a serious interest in…
