From the OS Assignment Officers:
Congratulations to all of those who took the May 2011 SWE.
We do not know what the cuts will be yet but for those of you who scored
high on the SWE we hope you are excited about the opportunities ahead of
you. We are all very fortunate to be in a rate where advancement is possible
and we wish all of you the best of luck in your career.
If you anticipate that you might advance you do not
need to contact us directly to determine if you will fleet up or rotate in
assignment year 2012 (AY12). We will work through your chain of command to
address fleet ups, rotations, and extensions. Units should forward command
concerns to address those who may be available for a fleet up, rotation, or
an extension in AY12. Units are also highly encouraged to contact us
directly to discuss any command concerns including fleet ups, extension
request, or rotations. Please use your chain of command and e-resume to
forward us your concerns. We also strongly recommend that you monitor the
CGMS message board for additional PSC (epm) AY12 SITREPs.
If you desire career counseling you may communicate
with us but please schedule this through your Chief or chain of command so
we can set aside time for each of you who desire career counseling ideally
for everyone on the same day if that is possible. We strongly suggest that
at a minimum everyone rotating in AY12 use the career and e-resume guidance
that we have published to help you understand how we will assign you and how
you should draft your e-resume. The e-resume guidance should help you if you
read it carefully and use it. This guidance is available at the following
web sites:
http://www.uscg.mil/psc/epm/AO/OS.asp
https://cgportal.uscg.mil/lotus/myquickr/os-rfmc/os-assignment-officer-notes
If it is late in the assignment season and you are
absolutely uncertain of whether or not you will fleet up or rotate in AY12
and you have questions you may ask them but please go through your Chief or
chain of command and ask if they have already addressed your concerns. It is
best if we work with commands to engage all of the concerns including fleet
ups, extensions, and rotations. We will do our best to ensure all of your
concerns are taken into consideration. Again, it is highly recommended
that a point of contact from each unit contact us directly to address all of
the unit and member concerns at one time for AY12.
Please be patient and we will do all we can to make
assignment year 2012 successful. Thanks and have a great Coast Guard day.
