I will be joining the USAF very shortly, and am feeling a little lost here, i scored a 94 on my ASVAB, but im still not sure what job i want to pick. SERE looks interesting, i had a friend whose dad did it. however in the long run im interested in OSI, but i cant do that right away until i make Staff Sgt.. so any more info on SERE, and whats a good job to pick to switch over to OSI later on?

  1. by the way, you don't get a specific job until you finish basic training, right now all you get is a career field, or specialty.  You may be looking to do a job and when you are done with basic, it may be something else, but still within that career field.  

    The Army is the only branch that can guarentee you a job, the job that you will actually do, prior to attending basic training.


  2. You aren't very likely to get SERE. Its very elite.

    You have a good score though, so you'll have your pick of most jobs. The ones I've thought to be interesting are: Aerial Gunner, EOD, Load Master, Security, and Crew Chief. But you have to work your way up to Crew Chief!

  3. Here's the job description on SERE. It looks like they keep you at Fairchild until you're fully trained. That's near Spokane, WA in case you didn't know.

    I don't think you need to wait until you've made E-5 to crosstrain to OSI. You'll need to complete your training in your original job and I believe you can crosstrain at 3 years time in service. See more info in the job description. They're looking for computer and linguists for their technical field too.
