I haven’t found much information about this online. Just like the question says, what steps would I need to take in order for me to transfer to another reserve unit as a chaplain candidate?

AR 140-10* has the information you're looking for (para 2-28).

For Chaplain and Chaplain assistant positions, individuals will work through the responsible Readiness Division* personnel manager CH who will work with the MSC/DRC unit ministry teams for assigning chaplains.

You Want To Transfer As A CHAPLIN CANDIDATE
And You Can't Figure Out How To Do It?
Have Ya Prayed About It?...
Maybe That's Where Your Answer Is.
But As For My Opinion, "God Only Knows".

The easiest way is to make your desire known through the Chaplain technical chain, contact you next most senior enlisted chaplain assistant. Likely your next level Group, brigade.
