Did anybody "rush" Portland in the past months? If so, what was the vibe like? Do they put high emphasis on rushing in order to get a slot? Cheers

I went to Portland back in December. It was hard to get a gauge on how important it was honestly because most of the squadron was gone doing training, but the guys I did meet were way cool. I definitely got a Portland-esque vibe though - kind of a big city tempo mixed with a simultaneously laid back kind of feel to it, but while still maintaining their readiness and taking the job seriously.

Thanks for the info

Silly question about 457th FW:  their website says that they do not allow new hires to attend unit functions. 

 

I assume this means drill weekends?  I am in the Texas Guard and would like to meet these guys.

Haven't heard anything back from Oregon yet but best of luck to everybody.  

Also if yall are applying to the 121st FS (DC Guard) make sure to get your applications in by 2/29.  They moved their deadline up from 3/31 and they require a longer application package than most places.

Congrats! How was the call? Mini interview? 

Thanks and not at all, very laid back and more of just a conversation!

Congrats dude!  Good luck up there!

Thanks, I appreciate it! Good luck going forward as well. This forum has a great community and I’m very fortunate for it

I could be wrong, but I think they'd probably call everyone who got an interview within a day or two of each other to give people time to start making plans to come up there. Again, hoping to be wrong! 

Did anybody interview in Phoenix a week or so ago?

Know a couple people that got calls from Oregon last Friday for invites. On another note, does anyone know if Bama is still allowing base visits this close to the board? Wasn't sure if they were planning on releasing invites before this weekend. If that were the case I could see them not wanting applicants rushing. 

Waiting to hear back from the POC and tried calling the ops desk but wasn't successful.
