Navy Pilot/ NFO "Rolling" Boards MAR/APR 2013
- Thread starter MarpatCam
- Start date
Hey I didn't have to do an interview, what is that all about? Or is that further in the process? I was told my package was already submitted.
Interviews are for active duty members

It usually depends on your recruiter. Mine wanted to make sure that everything that can be done would be done. The board will essentially focus on your ASTBs along with your GPA. The recommendations are more of an evaluation of officer potential. I think my recruiter wanted to go ahead and do everything because I used to be an AFROTC cadet and quit after the first year, which is generally seen as a big no no in officer accession land.

It may also be a district thing. I was never active duty but I was AFRES.
Officer interviews are open to anyone, some designators weigh them more heavily than others. When applying for SNA/NFO, they don't carry as much weight but are still accepted for submission with your kit. Having an Officer interview won't hurt by any means, that is of course if you do well.

I don't get it, I had my finger prints and phys done in February. I want my OCS date already!
Haha maybe that is the point. Think selections will be like the last few boards?
Did you do one?
Your SNFO right? You know they require a TS during flight school.
No, I thought about it and asked a few recruiters their opinion but they told me it wouldn't be worth my time.

Interm TS from my understanding, as getting a TS can take quite awhile.
Still that may be why it is taking longer cause I think a secret is just a computer BG check. Not to hard to obtain.
Same here. Surprised you never heard anything since you have had your package in for awhile.
Yeah I talked to my recruiter about that yesterday actually. He submitted my kit, along with another kit the same day and the other kit made it to the board but mine didn't. I guess I missed that board by a day because headquarters held my package a little longer to verify they were allowed to submit without my conditional release being fully adjudicated. A little frustrating but while I was in the office he showed me in their system that my kit was in a pro-board status which was a pretty good feeling nonetheless.
My personal outlook is that if we don't hear anything about another board by the first week of June, they we are probably waiting until July. But hey no big deal really, the scheduled board will here before we know it.
