Air Force Contracting and Finance Career Field?
May 30th, 2009 | 
Author: Is there anyone that is leaving for air force basic training in a few months or has already left in the last few month with a guaranteed job in contracting (6C0X1) or financial management (6F0X1). If so, how long did you have to wait? When is/was your ship date? Is the contracting career field still deploying a lot? Please only answer if this career field applies to you or you are an air force recruiter. Thanks
I can answer you question on deploying. Active Duty Air Force is on deployment cycle. You will get put into an AEF bucket. You deploy when your AEF is do to deploy. It generally works like this, you are home for a year, then deploy for 6 months, then home for a year, deploy for 6 months,etc. Its an ongoing cycle while we are at war. Depending on where you get stationed also has something to do with it. If your units primary mission is stateside only, its highly unlikely you will deploy during the the period you are at that duty station.
