My civilian career as a surgical tech no longer satisfies me and I have no passion to go further in the medical field. I am considering down the road looking for an AGR position or Unit admin. I also want to consider warrant down the road, is it difficult to get warrant as a 42a? Thank you for the advice.Re-classing to 42a and moving to an instructor unit. Is this a good move?2019-08-26T22:32:38-04:00SGT Private RallyPoint Member4960138<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I am considering my future.

If the warrant officer area is what you want to do, I would suggest that you get your ducks in line (i.e. get the education and schooling required, if you have not already) and make yourself the "go-to" person in your unit.Response by MAJ Rene De La Rosa made Aug 26 at 2019 11:38 PM2019-08-26T23:38:37-04:002019-08-26T23:38:37-04:00SFC Private RallyPoint Member4960372<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If you're interested in AGR why not go onto active duty? On active duty, 42A warrants are always way under strength and they're always taking applicants.Response by SFC Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 27 at 2019 12:22 AM2019-08-27T00:22:59-04:002019-08-27T00:22:59-04:00CW3 Private RallyPoint Member4960373<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div><a target="_blank" href="https://recruiting.army.mil/ISO/AWOR/420A/">https://recruiting.army.mil/ISO/AWOR/420A/</a> <div class="pta-link-card answers-template-image type-default">

Do you plan to stay in the military for any length of time? If I were you, I'd put together a 420 warrant packet and an AGR packet and develop both. Going warrant as a 42a is only difficult if you do nothing. Otherwise I'd go for it. I was a 42a at the Airborne School at Ft Benning (Regular Army) and at the Special Forces school at Ft Bragg (AGR). Both were awesome assignments. I enjoyed helping people so it just might be a good fit for you. As you put together both packets (420a and AGR) you'll probably have better insight on what you want to do. I hope this helps.Response by MSG Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 27 at 2019 5:26 PM2019-08-27T17:26:44-04:002019-08-27T17:26:44-04:002019-08-26T22:32:38-04:00
