<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am currently attempting to secure a Reserves 35L contract pending medical waiver. My recruiter recently contacted me saying that a unit close to me, despite having 10+ vacancies in this MOS, was "not accepting vacancy loads (exempt unit)" or something to that effect. Apparently this means that there are functionally zero vacancies for this MOS available for me to fill in my state or immediately adjacent ones. I am fully qualified for the position. I am not particularly interested in any other jobs. How long of a wait should I expect?Thu, 16 Nov 2023 14:02:37 -0500How long can I expect to have to wait for an entry-level 35L opening (Reserves)?

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Two things:<br />1. in the Reserve compos (Army Reserve and Army Guard) they typically want to interview the candidate before accepting them for 35M or 35L.<br />2. The Army Reserves is divesting a lot of 35M and 35L. Could be that unit is locked because next year that unit won't have 35L at all.<br />You should consider talking to an Army Guard recruiter if this is the MOS you want.SGM Jeff MccloudThu, 16 Nov 2023 20:35:31 -05002023-11-16T20:35:31-05:002023-11-16T14:02:37-05:00
