  1. your evals would say "My #X of XX PO1s!" or "My #1 technician afloat!"...something that breaks you out from your peers.  Are you tracking to the right on your PSR? As in, you check aboard, P to MP or EP and stay there until next assignment.  Sustained superior performance is often overlooked when we rattle off our accomplishments but from a board perspective, it's the first thing we see.

    I think for me my lesson learned is that I truly underestimated not having documented FCPOA involvement.  I have one E-6 eval from about 6 years ago that has a bullet for FCPOA/CPO365 (when that was a thing).  I've followed as much of my LaDR as I can so aside from not having a breakout eval, I feel that might be the only other thing holding me back.  Here's hoping that being a cabinet member this year is the difference between an S and another N.

    Are you breaking out in traffic?

  3. From the top: 

    - you need to have a strong promotion recommendation in the opener.  If you truly are the #1, the CO is going to say how/why.  This is where you might see something like "Ranks # of ## PO1s.  Crucial to my XXX mission.  Select now for MNC!" or "Already performing as a CPO, make pants match the shirt!" 

    - your leadership bullet reads like a collateral.  What's the impact of your leadership? What are people accomplishing under your leadership? Retention? Promotion? Training? Also, too many words:  "Led 42 Sailors that resulted in 93% mobilization readiness; ensured rapid deployment ISO national security".  Is this percentage the highest in the command? Is it high compared to other commands? It helps to provide context when using percentages.

    - If you are the LPO, are you not the person nominating someone for BJSOY or JSOY? Did anyone win at the Quarter level? Honestly, the advancement, BJSOQ/Y and JSOQ/Y could/should be under leadership.  You can flesh out the Div CC bullet.  Also, being a mentor doesn't match the FCPOA blurb here.  It should command or peer leadership/involvement.

    - Save the community service for block 44.  Wasting a lot of space here.  In block 44, you can simply put a blurb about your hours.

    - Need a stronger closing statement.  "Put this rising superstar in khakis! HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION FOR IMMEDIATE SELECTION! PRESS 100 NOW!"  (If you are truly #1, the eval should read like it.  If you aren't, don't use strong language.  It sends mixed signals to the board and it's easy to spot.  I don't know your individual trait average with this reporting senior so I cannot provide more direct feedback here.  This is solely based on what you posted.)

    - Are you an instructor at "A" school? If so, do you have class numbers?  

    - You have same info about volunteer service here in Block 44 as 41.  VOLUNTEER:  Boy Scouts Scoutmaster (## hours)

    Schrodingers’s Chief. At this moment the board has adjourned and everyone eligible is both selected and non selected lol.

     

    Best of luck to everyone eligible. To the MN in the crowd keep your heads up. Navy advancement is ebb and flow. I just wanted to leave a few helpful tips here I learned as a Chief Select and in the 7 years since.

    1. Your Season will last from 9/06-10/21. If you have any appointments at all during this time that aren’t critical try and reschedule. 
    2. Most commands have done their PFA but there is always the risk of someone’s PHA expiring in Sep/Oct. If your PHA expires you will not be allowed to participate in the PT portion until it gets fixed.

    3. When your season starts, don’t leave anything on the table. Give it 100%. You will regret it if you don’t. 
    4. Formation runs are one of the most powerful events for building Esprit de Corps in a unit. With roughly 36 days left, try and learn a unique cadence now. 

    5. HAVE FUN! This may not make any sense to you during the hard times but this is YOUR season! 
    6. Good Luck!!

    Last couple of year AD results have been released 10-15 days after board adjourned. Is there any chance AD results will start sooner if CNP call happens and results are certified ahead of schedule or is September 6th the absolute date??

    It's possible but if you look at MCPON turnover date (currently around 8 Sept), it makes sense that they are a little longer this year
