I’m creating an initial job list over the weekend, and I was told my #6-10 on the job list have to be jobs that the Air Force needs. What are some of those jobs currently? I don’t want to bug my recruiter about it on a Saturday/Sunday, and I’ll end up asking him on Wednesday when I swear in anyway but I just want an idea.

P.S. For my 1-5, I’m leaning towards 1A or cyber. I am fully qualified for all jobs. 94 Asvab, 93+ on all aptitudes, full color and depth perception. Any advice on 1A’s civ applicability? Which ones will let me travel but also give me some tangible qualifications?

Hey everyone. I recently went to Meps and was completely cleared, chose not to swear in there but at a later date with my recruiter.

Besides this, we have been going over and discussing jobs/contract.

Why do recruiters push a 6 year contract so much more than a 4 year? Almost every single person says the bonuses and earlier promotions aren’t worth the extra time you commit in a 6 year vs. a 4 year, but I have seen other recruiters as well as mine try to convince that a 6 year contract is far better. I’m aware there is no direct incentives or commissions for recruiting, but do 6 year contracts help them meet their quota more efficiently, faster, or something of that nature?

P.S.: I am seriously considering a 6 year currently so please give me any pros/cons if you are willing. I am looking at some jobs with decent current bonuses(not SecFo, don’t worry) so bonuses are a real possibility. Thanks for any advice!
