Thinking about going Reserves, but have to re-class. My re-class options are 35F and 35M, what is the work environment like?

I am a 35f and its ok. The work enviroment depends on where you are stationed. In a tactial unit be ready for alot of physical security inspections and processing security clearance packets. At the stragetic level I do alot of reading and building powerpoints for briefings. But the clearance that you get is awesome for jobs in the civilian sector.

The clearance is nice it just depends on if you are willing to work in the great DC area. There are jobs in other places but the bulk start there or are on the east coast.

Both are excellent options. If you are an outgoing person with tons of initiative I would suggest 35M. If you are more reserved or have a type B personality you might be happier as a 35F. Have you considered dropping a packet for 35L? That job requires lots of writing and you must be a people person.

SSG, thank you for the advice. I was leaning towards 35M, and I'll look into 35L. I wanted to see which MOS in people's experience required more interaction with others. I currently work in an office all day everyday, but I don't get a lot of interaction with other people.

SGT (Join to see) - 35M is all about working with people as is 35L. The positive thing about 35F is there are more jobs in that profession in the civilian sector.

Yes. I've heard the same thing from one of my friends about the 35F. Thank you for sharing your expertise.
