United States Marine Corps?

Question

when you go to boot camp for the marine corps, do you choose whether you want to be an infantry riflemen or a tank operator or anything like that or do they choose for you after you complete boot camp?

Answer 1

You never have the choice to choose your exact job. When joining the Marines, you only have the right to choose the occupational field.

Answer 2

you pick all of that prior when you complete your contract at the time of enlistment... unless you signed an open contract.There are several jobs available.

Answer 3

you pick ur mos before

Answer 4

You choose your MOS field before you enter boot camp..

Most jobs will not allow you to choose a specific job but you can choose a specific field..

Example..you can choose to be in the infantry but you can not chose one of the 5 sub-mos's under that field..The USMC will do that for you..

Answer 5

Your ASVAB scores determine what jobs you are qualified for, and from there you will either pick a job you want that they are hiring for, or they will offer you a specific job.

Answer 6

I know that in the army you have to take a test similar to an I.Q test, and then off that you can pick a job that you are qualified for. The higher your test score the more likely you will get what you want.
