    Question 1: On page 36 Navy warrant officer insignia, w-3 and w-4 describe as "single gold bar device" while the photo showed single silver bar device. Question 2: The w-5 insignia is missing. Is w-5 not required to memorize as w-1?

    Fired Before Finselect?

    Just be cool. The worst case is lay off. You can receive unemployment $. I was asked to the HR, and the HR guy just say "We are sorry to ask you to leave. Here is the lay off form." I did not say anything. Just sign it and say a nice goodbye to them.

    Fired Before Finselect?

    Check the Finsel thread. You should have a clear picture. I was selected on the DEC 2015 SWO board. I saw those from DEC SWO board will ship out 4/17. Well, you are not the only one hating your job in here. Just study appendix B and survival guide. That should make you busy.

    Fired Before Finselect?

    Active. I talked to my OR yesterday. He said everything including a completed background check is OK. He said that he simply could check my FINSEL online, but no result yet. Some previous thread already told 6 months waiting period is "normal." I am sure you just read that NRC shut down SWO...

    Fired Before Finselect?

    Not yet. Still waiting my FINSEL. However, my OR told me to be patient for the slow process. You already passed the hardest part for selection;so, just be easy and do whatever you want. Whatever you worry now, you have to leave your job in a short period. Why don't you go out and take a nice...

    Fired Before Finselect?

    I could share you my experience since I am waiting for my FINSEL too. 1st, your employer can not fire or terminate you if you did not do any thing against the law or company policy or anything "bad." However, they can lay off you with any reason, but it won't affect your personal background...

    23 May 2016 Supply Corps Board

    WOW. I guess the selection process is changing all the time based on different sources about a candidate. When my recruiter talked about the OR reference, he explained that OR is the 1st hand interacted with his candidates. Through the entire process, he or she eventually knew the candidates...

    23 May 2016 Supply Corps Board

    That's a helpful comment. I gona told my friend about it. Since I got selected but he did not, he keep thinking that the recruiter putted something "bad" on the application causing he became a "bad" applicant. If someone could make a "weight of application" pie chart, it will be decent to...

    22 FEB 2016 SUPPLY CORPS BOARD

    I faced a same issue as yours. My processor missed a piece of document in my package. When she resubmitted all, the deadline was passed. BTW, there were 8 months for my processor to handle my package, and she still missed it.

    23 May 2016 Supply Corps Board

    My friend and I both applied the supply board on NOV 2015. His package is way better than mind.We both did not received any interviews. Our recruiter even told us that is unnecessary, and whatever his own recruiting opinions putted on the application form matters more. However, my friend (his...

    Future Supply Board Dates?

    Your OAR may be seem a little weak to the board based on your GPA 3.0, but you can still have a try. If you dont have any age waiver issue, you can retake the OAR until you fell confortable. Remember, you only have 2 chances. So, I would recommand to apply now and fully prepare your 2nd OAR...

    Future Supply Board Dates?

    You only have 1 last chance for OAR. You should focus on to improve your OAR to at least 50 since you can't do anything to you GPA now. To me, the OAR is really similar to the SAT math and English, there are tons of study matherials you can find online. If you could pass 2 or 3 SAT sample tests...
