Hello, I'm following this conversation as I am in the process of applying for a Supply Officer position. As I am going through this process, there were no interviews for me. Am I missing something that would enhance my package to the board?Why didn't you ask any of these questions during your three interviews? A big chunk of a professional interview is to field career-specific questions about the Supply Corps community.
I've seen some interviewers give not-so-favorable remarks on the interview sheet because the applicant didn't bother asking questions even though it was encouraged. They took the interview as if the applicant just wants to "boost" his chances of getting selected and not truly experience an opportunity to talk to someone in the community for 15-20+ years.

I was inquiring about the interviews. Do applicants get interviewed? My recruiter told me it was not necessary.There’s a thread dedicated to what’s considered competitive for Supply.

Question: does anybody know if students with families are on accompanied orders during the 27 weeks of Supply School ?
Housing
On base housing is very limited at NSCS. Students with dependents can find out about the availability of housing by contacting the housing office. Those without dependents should expect to live off base. While they should still contact the housing office before arranging their residence, the primary service the office can offer to such students is advice on where to find housing out in town.
I'm curious about this as well. Found this post in an old thread from back when BQC was in Athens, not sure if the situation changed since moving to Newport.
Also, I assume that normal BAH applies during BQC if you're living off base?
My daughter-in-law will be going off to OCS soon then on to Supply School. My son will stay in his home state during OCS, but was planning on going to RI during Supply School.
My question is: is it possible to find affordable housing in that area that will also accept 2 large dogs, one of which is usually on restricted breed lists? Searching on-line it seems houses/apartments are very expensive and most do not allow dogs. PLEASE tell me places like this exist and how to find them so I don't have to keep the dogs here!!!!
As a brand new Ensign supply officer, you're not going to have much choice in where you're assigned.Or personal recommendations on billets?

This is fairly accurate, but for ENSs going active coming out of Supply School chances are you're going to be on a ship or a sub.I had heard after Supply school new ensigns compete for the billets available based on ranking, even if you choose one as preference is it still pretty much "needs of the Navy" then?
Ok...do you want this boat or that boat? #1 choose, #2 you get the other.I had heard after Supply school new ensigns compete for the billets available based on ranking, even if you choose one as preference is it still pretty much "needs of the Navy" then?
