For those interested, I am available to review active Army SSG records for the upcoming FY14 AC SFC board for the next seven (7) days (through 19 December).<br><br>Note: &nbsp;Ensure you've completed SSD-3 and ALC.<br><br>If you are interested in getting your records reviewed, email the following documents to [login to see] :<br><br>- DA Photo<br>- ERB<br>- Last 3 NCOERs<br><br>I will provide feedback, even if everything is 'perfect'.<br><br>I have over 10 years experience as a Human Resources Specialist (PMOS 42A) and another 10 years experience as an Army Career Counselor (PMOS 79S). &nbsp;I've reviewed ERBs/records on a near-daily basis.<br><br>Why do I think I'm qualified to review records?<br>I was (and still am) thoroughly mentored and I was (and am still) provided with an abundance of career guidance through many sources and I was selected in my first year of eligibility (secondary zone) for SFC, MSG and SGM (not blowing my own horn and I'm not saying I'm even remotely better than anyone else). &nbsp;I was also fortunate enough to review records for the past 10 years for Soldiers considering different career options and NCOs being considered for promotion.<br><br>How do I have the time?<br>I am currently attending the US Army Sergeants Major Academy during the day and have taken a hiatus from college classes (I have 10+ years to complete my master's degree)...instead of wasting my time 'hanging out', I'll continue to provide counsel and mentorship to our Soldiers/NCOs. &nbsp;It will also keep my mind sharp for my next assignment after the Sergeants Major Academy.

If you are a young SSG or SFC out there and you do not take advantage of a Senior NCO looking over your records prior to validating, you are not doing all that you can to ensure success.  A second set of eyes is always a good idea...especially when those eyes come from someone with a lot of experience with reviewing records, evaluations, etc.  Take advantage of the offer!!!
