FY-18 LDO/CWO Procurement Selection Board Discussion

[Guest Intel]

Haven't seen anyone really post some of their package highlights.  Would be interesting to see.  I'll start:

Admin LPO (115 Sailors)
#2 EP at command (#10 of 112 building-wide)
EIWS Coordinator
Education Services Officer
Assistant Command Fitness Leader
PPME, JPME, BA in Psychology, 18 semester hours towards MS at Florida Institute of Technology
Certified in Homeland Security Levels I and V, USMAP Computer Operator
Four NEC's: 3923, 3910, 9502, 95AD
EIWS, ESWS, EAWS

Not sure what else would make much of a difference.  Also, my brother is waiting on CWO results.  So, we could possibly end up in Newport together.  Fingers crossed!  Good luck, all!
 

[Guest HooYahDeepSea]

Your history seems very competitive. How are your appraisals and ranking amongst candidates?

 

#2 of how many command wide?

MOVSM

SOQ/SOY 

 

Looks like your on the right track, might be on track to even putting on CPO....

Best of luck!

We only have 9 First Classes at my command.  My appraisals were all 10s.  I've put in two OCS packages and this is my second LDO package.  Never had another candidate apply with me.  I haven't gotten my MOVSM.  I have gotten SOY, but it was 2013.

[Guest HooYahDeepSea]

I hope that next month will bring us some exciting news.

 

predicting release on the 23rd of Feb!

6th/final LDO application for me. 682X/618X. Three from my FY-14 CPO class are already LDO/CWO - hoping to join the club. Good luck to all!

(thought you meant 628, as an ET...)

I had to look up 628X - didn't realize 62XX were the sub designators (I'm a surface guy.) Learn something new everyday...

I sent in a Flag Letter, one from an old CO, one from my old DH who is now a CO, and one from my forward deployed operational commander... when I get in to work I will pull up my enclosures and send a list... what did you send in?

720X I am all in, I figured I sent a lot but oh well. I want them to see it for sure.

[Guest osiris0107]

Well...its better to send too much than not enough is what I say. The only thing that I didn't send this time that I sent last was LORs. Every LDO in my community told me that they didn't send them in and if your Skipper and the Appraisal Board said you GTG we don't need more people to say it too. Who knows anyways the board changes every year and someone could like it and another person could prefer LORs. To send or not to send, that is the questions, LOL.

Very impressive! Did you get your associates and bachelors this recently and that's why you are submitting.

I though I had a lot but now I think I am within average #s in enclosures.

 

with that much accomplishment I am sure you will be good either way. Good luck

My associates wasn't in my record for some reason... I sent my bachelors cause I finished it in October 2016. Just wanted to make sure it was sent. 

[Guest osiris0107]

OH boy howdy!!! I'm glad that I am not going against you for my designator. You have a lot more credentials than I do.

[Guest IS1_645X]

This is my second application for LDO and I'm a little curious how much of an impact does the rank of the commanding officer matter when it comes to the endorsement.

I keep hearing conflicting information. I would say the obvious in that the higher the better...I know that doesn't help much, but I equally don't know if that is anything that could be put out here. I have heard of people that were not number one at a command getting accepted over someone that is number one...

[Guest HooYahDeepSea]

I assume the higher the better. But if your CO is lower ranking I wouldn't think that it is viewed negatively.

i am curious to know as well.

Good luck to everyone. Waiting for the navadmin to come out is the worst part. Less packages received this year and more quotas. Just throwing a number out there but I'm going with Feb 24th for results.

-636X hopeful. 

Where did you see how many packages were submitted?

It was on the LDO/CWO Community Manager's Page on facebook 

Did it give total, or per designator?  If by designator, did you catch intel?
