PACT-SN Questions
I got DEPped in on Thursday of last week and was given the rating of PACT-SN. It was the only rating available and I am more focused on joining the Navy entirely than being concerned about the rating I get.
HOWEVER, I still would much rather have an actual rating rather than undesignated.
I don't ship until December 15th so I am going to put in a DAR today with my recruiter.
But, can anyone shed some light on a couple things for me;
1. Realistically, do DARs get approved? Do I have a better chance since I am waiting until December
2. Would they call me and say random jobs are opening up or do I make a list of some I would take
3. Someone told me that would mean that I would have to leave for boot that same week they offer me a different job and approve my DAR. Is that true?
I am a little confused and figured I would come here because even the classifier at MEPs lied to me. He told me with PACT-SN, you MUST get a rating and leave for A-School within 6 months of your first command. He said I can not legally remain undesignated for longer than 6 months..
Need some insight! Thanks!
