03 DEC 18 IWC BOARD

[Andrew_F]

Have you scheduled your SCI Pre-screen with your Region SSO?

I haven't. I'll ask the Senior Chief helping me, on Monday, about who my region's SSO is. He said we are just waiting until the FINSEL comes in for our next step. My OR moved on after my application was submitted, so he has been my contact moving forward. Thanks for the heads up!

I believe the SSO pre-screen is a required piece for your INTEL FINSEL letter

Once again... lets hope tomorrow is the day that my recruiter gets some news!

Results are in PMII (applicant tracking system) if you’re working with an OR. Your recruiter is the only person who can access.

Fleet applicants should see results in BOL already.

Are you sure? I called the OCS processor(9018749028) Friday regarding IWC results and he told me that the results were not out yet. My recruiter also said he didn't see anything Friday.

Why were you calling the OCS line instead of going straight to your OR?

 

[Zct4ud]

Why were you calling the OCS line instead of going straight to your OR?

Because I am proactive and because I care very deeply about this process. Additionally, my recruiter has been phenomenal and I am so thankful for his help. But, I was burned by recruiters years ago and therefore I have been extra cautious in this process. (Also, I went to my recruiter before I called)

I also want to thank you for your help and dedication to this site. You seem very active and many of us appreciate that.

I understand that but you have a recruiter for a reason. How would you feel if someone who worked for you working things around you? The majority would be pissed.

You’ll learn the concept of “chain of command” if or when you become an officer. If you have issues with communication with your recruiter/POC, talk to them. You also need to be patient.

Couple of things:
1. Your OR can get in deep shit by NRC if you keep contacting them instead of your recruiter.
2. The NRC processors never get the most up to date information. @NavyOffRec and I have discussed this countless times.

You're right. I would never want to put my OR in a bad spot and If I had known that my actions could do that then I would of never of reached out. Regarding number two, I was just confused to see others receiving results and some who were not like myself.

I should probably just be patient. And its probably not a good use of my time to be constantly checking this site. How would I go about having my account deleted?

NM found it. Just sent admin message.

I just set up an appointment with my SSO office so that will be a time, but I can't receive my finsel until I graduate from college! I'm very curious about what the pre-screen is like but I will figure it out soon enough.

Awesome. Mine already completed and submitted. I recommend to review "ICD 704" document prior to doing your interview. Just gives you eligibility type info. But question topics include Foreign contacts/ties, Financial fitness, employment derogatory info, anything that can compromise security

Thank you for the advice about ICD 704... that will be useful. My only issue is foreign born family members but most of them have naturalized. Hopefully my interview tomorrow will go well!

Got my recommendation about a week ago. I was told I am probably going to OCS in a week. Waiting on final details. Talk about short notice but I'm very excited.

Congrats! That's fast! Which designator did you get recommended for?
