What Rank Was The Most Challenging But Rewarding?

Lieutenant. Little was expected, which allowed me to accomplish a lot with little oversite.

THE RANK OF E-5 WAS MY MOST CHALLENGING YET REWARDING BECAUSE I WAS AT A POINT IN MY CAREER THAT I COULD MENTOR AND STILL BE MENTORED. GIVING ADVICE WAS GREAT BUT ALSO REALISING I STILL HAD A LOT TO LEARN. WHAT WAS EVEN MORE REWARDING WAS AT THE POINT WHERE MY ACTIONS WERE INFLUENCIAL TO JOUNIOR MEMBERS AND RANKED PEERS. IT WAS A RANK THAT HELPED ME EVOLVE AS AN ADULT. I WAS GIVENTHE ABILITY TO LEAD BUT I WAS ALSO AT THE STAGE WHERE I HAD THE ABILITY TO INQUIRE AND NOT FEEL LIKE I WAS NOT ADEQUATE FOR NOT KNOWING. I COULD STILL GO "ASK THE CHIEF". BEING AN E-5 HAS TAUGHT ME SO MANY LESSIONS THAT I UTILIZE TO THIS DAY. I HAVE NEVER STOPPED LEARING AND I USED THE ABILITIS TO LEAD TO EXCELIN MY CIVILIAN CAREEER.

I'd say Specialist was the most challenging and rewarding, since I made it twice.
