Does anyone else have a recruiter who never ever calls them?
Mine called me once....I was a different person back then. Younger, naive, more idealistic.
"Except for anything pertinent to the board. So no, we can't actually answer half your questions, but here is a brochure! Also, you look smart. How do you feel about nuclear energy?" I knew an OR who pimped out the nuclear program to anyone who would listen. He was relentless.

I almost feel like I am bugging my recruiter. Most of the stuff I have gotten together outside of the office I had to call for and figure out on my own. He has never called me on his own before. Always just calls me back. I feel like I am bugging him or something. I don't want to call and ask because I feel like he doesn't want to talk to me about it. Just wanted to see if anyone else is in the same boat.
Oh madam, you and I both. I not only call my recruiter, but also email my processor and frequently talk to the petty officer in charge of taking calls at the office. You call it bugging, I call it networking. Those wheels wont turn unless you grease them!

It's just such an uncomfortable position! I just want to be updated on what I need and news about what is going on. Isn't that supposed to be their job??
Amongst other things. I mean, they have to actively recruit to as well as various other administrative tasks so they keep a pretty busy schedule. That being said, you know you've made an impression when they get back to you immediately. It use to take a week or so for my processor to email me, now it just takes a matter of minutes. She knows I'll just email her every couple of days otherwise....

Action is the foundational key to all success.
Mine don't call either. When I do call, I do feel as though I am bugging him, but in his defense, there really hasn't been a reason to call.. I don't think he has a clue what is going on with the SWO results either. Also, I just email him when I have a question and he answers back to that quickly and I feel as though I am not bugging him as much that way lol

Oh, I don't have that persistence. I end up just waiting for a response for a good while. I am a bit frustrated at waiting, but keeping up with air warriors has kept me much more in the loop. Because of this site, I know that results have come in and that SWOs are just last to hear. If I only depended on my recruiter, I would be blindfolded with crickets sounding off around me with this stuff.
Ha! If I only depended on my recruiter I wouldn't know much at all!I fully admit that when I initially contacted them I knew absolutely nothing about the various officers programs, or honestly the Navy as a whole. My first recruiter was retiring so he didn't really care and my new one doesn't talk much. I really wish they had a DEP like program for officers. That would be incredibly helpful.
