I got my job!!! ruclips.net/video/XP4LOA73zqI/видео.html
I was in intelligence and I loved it. You’d be surprised what jobs after the Air Force open up for you by having a high security clearance.
I am prior service and going back in as a reservist. Interestingly enough they are letting me pick basically whatever job I want including ones people normally do not have access to like education administration I am torn between it and Geo-spacial intelligence as people that take that one seem to like it not sure what asfc you are.
what was your afqt
@@chrisb.ramirez1080 I was just services cause went open general like a dummy XD
@@fbibarbie i got a 70 first try but i think ima do reserves bc im planning to land a civilian job with my bachelors which i dont like but i know usaf with a 70 they could probably throw me my 9th listed job option
@@fbibarbie how are things?
civil engineer....there will always be a demand for engineers. its a great job even in the civilian world.
My experience was a little different. I had made my top 10 list before I went to Meps. After I had taken my ASVAB on day 1 and medical on day 2 I got my job offer immediately after my medical examination as a RPA maintainer. It was my no.2 on the list I filled out that shipped out on a doable date for me. I’m still waiting in the DEP program as of now. I ship on the 1 of August this year and am really looking forward to serving my country and doing something I’m passionate about.
Gata admit, this video has made my job as a recruiter for the Navy a lot easier. Thanks for spelling tis out so nicely, I couldn't get the Air Force recruiters out here to spell the process out to me. Cheers and good luck!
Material Management is a good job. Logistician positions are widespread in the civilian world and the pay is good even on entry level positions. But we do deploy regularly
A RUclipsr by the name of Elora Jean is a Photojournalist in the AF. It looks like a cool and awesome job.
yeah! I watch her videos sometimes!
You wanna talk about full circle.... back in 2015 I spent about a month watching Kyles videos on being in the Air Force. Decided that this was the thing for me and joined. I lived in HUNTSVILLE AL. Makenna is now joining the Air Force at the same recruiting station that I did... If this isn’t full circle I don’t know what is. Currently stationed in the Netherlands 🤟🏻
crazy world!!
The AF always needs your top two choices so you have a great chance at getting one of those. I'm an AF vet and my son is in as well.
thank you and your son for your service!
@@AirmanVision Thank you for your service as well!
Personnel, Finance, and Materiel Management. Aerospace medical is a fourth runner up. The rest are pretty unlikely
I had a high ASVAB score and got pressured in to taking a job by my recruiter that I shouldn’t have had. Probably one of the reasons I didn’t stay in the Air Force.
My recruiter sucks too. He told me to lie about my allergies just to try to ship me out fast as possible. I wasn’t gonna go for that. Told Meps about the allergies and I only have to get an anaphylaxis waiver now. Waiting for that to process. I have a good list set up too, and he better not try to screw me over again. He’s already tried to hit me with misinformation, even though my uncle is a retired major( I gave him my recruiters number😂). Hoping this works out in the best possible way because he’s the only Air Force recruiter where I live. These recruiter guys are like care salesman istg
Hey Makenna! I was also sworn into the Air Force recently 20210402 (coincidentally my MEPS is located in Nashville), as well as submitting my jobs list yesterday to my recruiter. The list contains pertaining maintenance of aircraft and my recruiter tells me to list about 20 then we shorten it to 16. My top 3 are 1: Aerospace Ground Equipment, Helicopter/Tiltrotor Maintenance, and Aircraft Fuel System. Also, my MEPS experience astoundingly ran so smoothly and the processing ran fast. Fingers cross if we can get the same shipment date!
That would be cool!! comment on here when you get a ship date! I'm still waiting to find out!
How is it I’m trying to decide on a job rn that transfers over to civilian life
I was fortunate to join the USAF, and work with aircraft. You know USAF and airplanes. I figured that the two go together.
I dont know what to decide....I scored high enough on the ASVAB to have my pick, but there's so many good options!!
Same
ANG paralegals interview prior to BMT for approval. Active Duty interview to be a paralegal during BMT. It is a great career field if you ever decided to cross train.
thanks for that info! I will keep that in mind! I would not have cared to do an interview, I was just told I couldn't put it on my list :(
I leave Tuesday for basic! Just be patient with your job selection! You’ll do great!
Hello guys. My son just got through MEP's and he was giving 4 page's of job. He went to his recruiter and then came home and made his list. My son had to pick 10 jobs and one aptitude area and send a picture of his list to the recruiter. Now he is just waiting for a call. He wants Metal tech but we will see.
Yep! that's how it was for me! I had 4 pages and had to pick 8 jobs and 1 aptitude (it's always changing, it has actually already changed to 14 jobs and 2 aptitude, but I'm glad I didn't''t have to do that!). I am still waiting as well!
My son turned in his list on April 8th. He got a call from his recruiter's supervisor yesterday. They told him someone came down with covid so there is a spot available if he wants the 3rd job on his list. Needless to say, he is now at Lackland. The day after he finishes BMT he goes to Sheppard.
@@tail66 awesome!! I almost had that happen to me!
I got a call and my recruiter was like "someone couldn't ship, if you want this job you leave tomorrow"
I turned it down though because it was't a job I had on my list
I have been in for four years now. That is a very good list good job.
thanks!
Hope you get a decent job. Many years ago, you could talk to recruiter about a certain job, and you were certain not to get it.
Material Facilities Specialist (Supply)’83-89..Supply Squadron RULES!!! Great Supervisors and Super co workers in that career field…I enjoyed it a lot!!
I'm a retired infantry master recruiter,1991- 130 asvab at 17- and 138 at 20 so just quit worrying. I never studied and keep calm but don't go without talking to 3 recruiters after 100 or more. Good luck guys ,
max asvab score is 99/100 how'd you get 130-138?
Stop lying
@@yslsaucegod1652true man. Maybe it used to go up to 200 back in the day or something
Makenna paralegal is gone because Air Force asked for volunteers but for just a few seats for basic..the DEP already filled it up. Recruiting is all timing and the Air Force needs what it needs.
Just never put missile and space facilities you’ll blink and your in minot for your enlistment
I was the same way when I made my job list lol I had made several lists for just in case purposes 😅
These are really good jobs for no high pressure and working with personnel can be super fun I have been working on a military base as a civilian for a year now it's pretty cool to experience anything you can
5:53 - The list
Hmm, you mentioned not being interestested in intel. If you don't mind me asking, did anyone mention the value that comes from a Top Secret clearance?
Great video by the way! It was really well made.
Good Value but If you don’t want to deal with the investigation then it’s not worth it. Especially if you want Trade school and University.
@@9manny99 - The investigation part, I understand. It is a lengthy and somewhat in invasive process, however having the clearance would still be great, even if school is what you aspire for. The career you're looking for might have an equivalent that requires a top secret clearance and thus higher pay. Ex: I want to be an engineer. I can finish my degree and then get an engineering position that not only requires a degree, but also a TS clearance.
@Kenny Lenny Kenny unless your engineering job is for a defense contractor I don’t see why you would need secret clearance
@@mickfunny4185 - That's the thing, it opens the door for additional opportunities. If the defense sector pays well enough, I absolutely will take it.
Wow this is really happening. Excited for you best of luck💙
AHHH, I KNOW!!!!! Crazy, right!? and thank you!!
My list:
1. Crypto Linguist.
Recruiter said that's all I needed. That was last Friday. Today on Monday got called in and shipping in 5 weeks.
P.S. Thank you for all the videos. Have been very helpful along the way for the past 5 or so months since I decided to join AF
Updates ?
Airborn Linguist is better.
@@monotonegaming1043 being Airborne Mission Supervisor is better still 😉
This was so perfect! Awesome helpful video! Thank u!
just to let you know how cool the air force is they have a console playing in the background 😆, the marines have a pull up bar.
I didn’t make a list, I straight signed client systems. Air guard is different lol
that’s my job, space force though
@@aquamama8382 you enjoy it? I haven’t got ship dates yet.
@@AndyAJ I ship May 24th, but i’ve talked to those with the job, they say they love it
@@aquamama8382 yeah the guys at my guard base seem to enjoy it too. Good luck!
My list was:
1. Paralegal
2. Aerospace Physiology
3. Contracting
4. Personnel
5. Pharmacy
6. Traffic Management
7. Financial Management Comptroller
8. Dental Assistant
@Jose R Paralegal and Dental Assistant seem like *very* different careers
@@mickfunny4185 😂 yeah I figured putting dental assistant since I’d rather do that than CE
No way, I'm Aerospace Phys.... been doing it for almost 7 years
@@mickfunny4185 I was going to have paralegal and dental assistant on my list, but I wasn't allowed to put paralegal and dental assistant was medical and I didn't have space for it because medical is already limited. It's okay to have different types of interests and jobs!
I was wondering why contracting is so low score in your list.its a high paying job in civillian specially if you have experience in airforce and cirtificates plus advance trainings!its UNICORN job.and a lot of people crosstrain with contracting.
My daughter only wants to do Physical Medicine but the recruiter is forcing her to pick 10 jobs including 5 from the critical list. Is this required or can she say all I want is this or nothing…
Thanks for the advice Makenna. It was
very helpful.
Personnel..........where I ended up. In and out Processing. Met alot of people coming onto, and leaving the Base...including TDY's.
Thats my #1 job lol
I love working with people!
I’d love to know her asvab score. Diagnostic imaging is what I want to do
Makenna I wish you the best I hope you get one of your job choices .
Things have changed since I was an Airman. I was a AGE mechanic in the early 80s
WHATEVER YOU DO. Do NOT put weather on your list. Cuz they WILL give it to you 😂
haha, it was one of my secondary options, but I didn't want it
Oh god I put this on my list ..
It's honestly not that bad. Tech school is just very difficult and long. It's about 8-9 months and has a high wash out rate but the job itself is pretty easy and kind of fun. I enjoyed my time doing it and miss it sometimes :') @@Vanhoofenburg
Hi, love your videos soooo much! I have a question about the job list. I’ m a non-us citizen and I have a 89 asvab score, can I choose medical jobs? Thank you!
What did you score on your Asvab? Awesome video!
How do you pick your base? Or does your job determine your base?
I got a 97 on asvab and got max weight lift and passed everything. My hearing isn’t the best so they are like you qualify for all these jobs and then they were like ohhhhh your colorblind there goes like 90 percent of the jobs go meeee. Also if you get admin or personal good luck at keesler and at the 335
oh man, that sucks!!
LOOOOL I swear we have the exact same list except diagnostic images
ooh awesome!! what other job do you have?
when did you swear in? do you have any info yet!?
@@AirmanVision I have health services management and maintenance management production in addition.
Unfortunately, my recruiter told me I have to get rid of my finger tattoo before going forward with the process. I am at my second laser session to do so, I still have 6 more to go.
In the mean time I am planning ahead, doing research, studying for the ASVAB, and training for BMT. I am 30 and I'm so scared to feel like I am not up to the task that I do everything to be as much prepared as possible.
@@elinaouoba862 you will be fine!! focus on getting the tattoo removed and studying for the asvab, those are the main focuses because they are the first steps
Recruiters don't wear uniforms anymore? Seems odd. I would want to see my recruiter in uniform, preferably blues service uniform with ribbons.
no, I think it was a change in the past few years. I can't remember the reason...maybe to make future recruiter more comfortable? I'm not sure. They still wear them sometimes, but not all the time
My Air Force recruiter doesn’t wear his uniform but when I was trying to get into The Marine Corp they were in uniform .
After starting the process, my recruiter tells me that I cant select my job preference because I need a moral/legal waiver. He said that I have to put “needs of the USAF”, but didn’t mention this before I applied. Anyone with a waiver have experience with this? I wanted to do cyber and im about to get my sec+ before joining
About how long is the whole process from first going to see your recruiter to getting shipped off to BMT?
Imagine signing away 4 years of your life and not even knowing which job you’re signing up for.
Are you only allowed to put one medical job in most cases?
It can depend on your recruiter and the rules for that region, so for my region that is the rule because they are going to start phasing out medical jobs in the military and transition them to civilian contractors.
It is already one of the smallest career fields, so it's always been tough to get medical.
So, we shall see what ends up happening!
The Aerospace medical course is terrifying. I hope you get diagnostic imaging instead lol.
Why you say terrifying? Is it difficult?
@@Fullblown671 EMT/LPN course in a few weeks. If you’ve been through college it should be fine
Why is terrifying?
I was an Aerospace Medical technician, not scary but demands a lot of dedication and studying.
Funny as I am older and joined in the 70's and all jobs were guaranteed as the draft had only ended recently and they were offering this as they were afraid that the all volunteer force may not work. It sure did.
Are you Air Guard or Active?
She’s in DEP so she’s Active Duty.
Guardmans are Actually Airforce already and can use some benefits once they join.
@@9manny99 Cool! Thanks.
@@23wdj Anytime. I’m about to join Guard in two days so I get how it goes
Curious if anyone knows about Intel tech schools like the difficulty I was at keesler last year for my job training and knew a bunch of people that had come to reclass to other jobs since they got wash out from intel school. Half of those jobs you listed the tech schools are at keesler I like the dfac food, good base.
Yeah, I heard the Intel jobs have a high failure rate and they end up getting re-classified.
I go in may, wonder if you’ll be there around that time
I wish :((
but most likely no
I went in back in 2010 and it was exactly like this.
Bro bump the Air Force jobs I need to know how your teeth are literally symmetrically straight best sets of teeth I’ve seen
Invisaline 👍 haha. She will appreciate this comment when she gets out of BMT!
When do you find out your job? At BMT or before you join or leave for Basic?
Awesome video, and I'm excited for you. I know that any job that you get, you will be the best at it
I’m a 1N8 or Geospatial Targeting
Donate some of your intellect to this prior service Marine doing college and ROTC while being in Army National guard but looking into changing to AF for ROTC and national guard so that I can commission in the AF as active duty
What are the qualifications for a pilot? Would me having glasses interfere with me being a pilot?
Nope
You can be a pilot with glasses, however pilot is such a competitive job and I have issues with my left eye so I don't think I'd be eligible for that job. If you apply and get accepted to USAFA in Colorado, you are guaranteed your #1 job!
@@TAnimations Thanks!
pilot is an officer job so you have to have a four year degree in something.
I got discharged and the paper said assign fault to recruiter. I scored highest on Admin and they stuck me in the medics
Is TSgt Davidson your recruiter? Iirc he’s from Washington state, same town my dad was born in!
Actually...funny story, he will be!!
Yep!! He's from Wala Wala!
There are currently 2 recruiters in my office, the one I am working with is moving, so TSgt Davidson will be my recruiter next month!
@@AirmanVision good ol Walla Walla, Washington in Walla Walla county! Crazy how small this giant world can be.
@@NBHRaven for real!!
Prolly get finance we are like 60% manned for 5 levels lol
I have very similar jobs listed. Including paralegal. 🤔🤔
I was told you don’t sign a contract until you have your job ?
you sign a DEP contract, just meaning you are in the program and you will follow the rules. You don't sign your active duty contract until you get your job
Hi
Personnel is way better than admin just FYI. Personnel does everything Admin does, but admin can’t do everything Personnel does. I’m a SSgt personnelist, if you get picked for that one I can help answer any questions you have. Or admin since I work with them a lot too.
oh perfect, thank you! I am still waiting to find out!
Do I really need to be a citizen to do Diagnostic imaging??
What are some desk jobs
Btw if you put 1A6x1 you will automatically get the job. It’s a hidden jem, and it’s critically undermanned.
Yea but all the flight attendants have a boring mission and can really only be permanently stationed at andrews
@@fastkarr8256 doesn't make cooking and cleaning up after everyone not boring. If you want to fly and be enlisted with a crazy mission, go 1a9 or 1a2 with the mc130/afsoc track
@@zacharystuits3606 1a0x1 looks pretty cool too
@@AndyAJ it's going away actually. Planes are getting smart to the point that very rarely are engineers needed anymore
@@zacharystuits3606 1a0x1 is boom operator. Are they really going to AI for in flight refueling?
Has Kyle considered going back in???
No! But I can't anyways. Getting a cervical spinal fusion in 2 months for a herniated disc.
Do you put more than one job on your list?
Should of joined the guard. E7 in 8 years
I have been trying to join for over 9 years and I have bounced around from active to guard to reserve haha. Active works for our lifestyle right now!
What did you do/use to study for the asvab?
ASVAB for dummies and 4tests.com
I will be posting a study video in the near future!
You all can't negotiate your job before you swear in anymore? Wow. Trusting souls...😱
Im out of decatur alabama
oh nice! Not far!!
You wouldn’t do well in high pressure situations? You realize you’re trying to join the military?
Best way is garinteed job
Do you have a date yet?
still waiting :(
"Can I get a can of Copenhagen extra long cut?"
Makenna, I'm betting you get finance. I'm like 100% sure you'll get it. Lol
I wouldn't mind!
@@AirmanVision best of luck! Make the best of it!
@@AirmanVision My Cousin was in Finance in the Air Force back in the 60's . He was stationed @ Elmendorf AFB , AK when the earthquake happened up there in Anchorage . I think it was in 1964 ?
I was medical material. Best job ever.
awesome!
What was your asvab score Makenna? O:
84!
@@AirmanVision ty! Gl with everything and god bless
i'm not even joining the air force but this is quit interesting i'm joining the marine corps btw
that is awesome! best of luck to you on your journey!
@@AirmanVision thank you
I’m currently processing with the Army, but I’m going to switch to the Air Force because I want to go into the PJs
@@voicesofmarshians528 the PJs are cool that and recon are the only enlisted job I would want in the air force if I did that
Id appreciate subtitles when youre wearing a mask. TIA!
you can turn on closed captions, that is an option on all videos
You're allowed nose rings??
She’s in the airforce? Say less
AF looks after its 1st. You 2nd
I chose the Army over the Air Force. No job list. I got to pick my specific job due to a high ASVAB score. Go Army - LOL
What was your asvab and what’s your mos
I got the career field I wanted. 2-year contract vs 6 years (USAF). @@Me-eb3wv
I don't blame you. Since the Army is much larger and has so many fields, they also has so many more options. Many people would be suprised.
@@pep590 I love the Air Force too. It was like 51% vs 49% (my choice). Air Force required me to sign up for 6 years to pick my job. Army signed me up for 2 years - LOL I stayed 20 years however. I spent my last 5 years at Beale Air Force Base in California (even though I was in the Army). I got to fly on Air Force planes and helicopters (to include hoist) dozens of times. Maybe flew 6 times (five on a helicopter, one on a turboprop plane) with the Army - LOL I was never interested in being in the Navy, Marines or Coast Guard.
@@Karoke77 Way to go! You killed it.
No secfo? Lol
Nope!
