Career

When it is Time to Move

This is where you will find resources related to detailing, relocation assistance, PCS orders, assignments and Career Waypoint. This is not all-inclusive but should get you in the general area for most of these topics. As usual, planning ahead will help tremendously and getting with your chain of command is a must. And don't forget your career counselor who you should contact as soon as possible to help you handle your detailing and assignment issues.

For those with families and also exceptional families, communicating your needs is a priority with your chain of command and detailers. Remember to utilize your Ombudsman and in lieu of that your Command Master Chief if you do not have an Ombudsman. The Navy really does help its own, it is just a matter of communicating your situation. Remember too that moving or making a career change can be stressful on you and your spouse or loved one so keep things in check as you handle your affairs.
