Im not a SWO so hopefully someone fresher out of OCS can chime in.

But for my class, our SWOs got their ship selection options a day or 2 in advance. They all got together and pragmatically talked about where/why they wanted to go to those ships/locations. They had it mostly figured it out amongst themselves before the official « selection day ».

I wasn’t in the room for this, but as I gathered, it was mostly people agreeing to leave certain ships for those with families. Then it was an open forum trying to sort the rest per their preferences.

I assume the candidates with families mostly preferred stateside ships over international ones?

It’s gonna depend class to class.
Most of ours were prior enlisted who had homes and school aged children at the duty station they just came from. They were trying to get ships back in those spots as to not shuffle their families.
