New Interactive assignment module is rolled out. Officers will now need a resume and units can pick based on skills, and pass on one officer over another....Riddle me this, so you are lacking a key experience or skill, and the only way to get it, is to go to the unit or location that has you perform it....but they won't ever pick your resume out of the pile because you don't possess that skill. You've just created a catch 22. What happens to the officers with resumes that haven't been selected in a cycle? Is it going to end up like 2d grade kick ball? Will the officers be fast tracked for separation? What happens if multiple units are bidding on the same officer, who gets the officer? LTC (Join to see) LTC John Mohor COL Mikel J.

This reminds me of aviation branch where flight time begets flight time and the rest of us got screwed. Branch personnel managers need to see what you’re not getting and make sure you get it.

Resumes will look the same as the over inflated OERs. I think this process will work one just needs to know where to look for a quality candidate.

I picked this up off FB and that was one of my comments there. Everyone will want "that job" and write a resume to get it.

I hadn't run across such material before...the idea of a resume explicitly needed for assignments obviously makes considerable sense, certainly, I just tend to wonder if the effect of one would obviously depend on the skill level of the author generating it, of course, purely an observation...I'd expect a similar approach might be used in all svcs, certainly...I can obviously perceive the reasoning, of course....
