Expand Ha, yes I see the PDF but don't see a list of what they want included in the packet on the PDF, only the eligibility requirements. I suppose we could just read between the lines and include the info in the eligibility reqs, but usually it's more clear-cut than that. Edited September 6, 2019 by doofer

I just saw the attachment and assumed it was in there. Weird! Probably email the POC on there to ask in that case.

goodflightcowboy Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 On 9/7/2019 at 3:54 AM, BadGuySplash said: Bogidope said fighter squadrons require higher pcsm than heavy squadron. Is there any truth to this? Expand Not a mil pilot (yet) so I obviously can't speak definitively, but I think generally speaking yes. There are probably heavier squadrons with really high PCSM thresholds, and fighter squadrons that don't give it too much weight, but my experience as an applicant has been yes. I think the bottom line is to just be the best applicant you can be, apply everywhere you could see yourself, and enjoy what works out. Thinking about the details will drive you crazy.
CavGuy Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) C5 unit in San Antonio told me they require at least a high 80's score on the PCSM for most applicants to be considered. It will vary from unit to unit. I got hired on my first interview in 2014 with a PCSM of 72 and average AFOQT stats. Have a solid cover letter that outlines you as a person and enjoy the process.

CavGuy Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 On a different note, is Bogidope a new website within the past few years? I remember having to go to each units website individually and see if they were hiring.

Expand If you mean the TBAS I’m pretty sure there’s not. Thought I read somewhere that a waiver is not possible for an additional retake. If I find a source I’ll post it here.
