Your YMAV will be 2501 and will not change so
your unit can forecast you as a loss. I will add
you to the 2502 marketplace. All ATRRS and
Assignment Instructions (AI) will be released
th
before the 4 of July holiday. Once your AI is
released you will receive a notification in
IPPSA to complete your member elections, this
will start the orders process to your local MPD
to generate your orders.
CAREER COUNSELING
I strongly encourage you to reach out to me at
any time IOT schedule a career counseling
session. I remain flexible and I am happy to
answer questions via email, TEAMS, or over
the phone. Honestly, the most convenient way
to speak with you about your career is a brief
email followed by a TEAMS call so I can have
time to review your file and be better prepared
to provide you the best guidance, options and
answers to your questions. The sooner you
reach out the better.

RULES OF ENGAGEMENT FOR AIM MARKET
1. Units “should” not ask you for OERs;
you can provide if you choose too. However,
un its should not even state or ask “if you would
like, you can send your OER.”
2. Branch will not share any information to
the officer or the unit IRT preference placement.
Do not ask.
3. Get involved with the market early and
often. There can be weekly changes as the
marketplace evolves.
4. If you contact a unit IRT a position and the
unit is unresponsive, reach out to me and I will
attempt to close the loop with the account
manager. Be reasonable with the time allowed
for a unit to respond.
5. During your discussions with the unit; be
honest, be upfront and know your career
path/plan. Ask the unit about the specific
position you are expecting to fill. Ensure the
position described is the position you will be
filling. This is of particular importance with
command positions.
6. If a unit asks you to provide a screenshot
of your preferences, do not provide and reach
out to me at the conclusion of that interview.
If you experience such situations mentioned
above, please reach out to me for assistance.
The marketplace is an incredible opportunity to
control your career. Take advantage of this
opportunity. If you do not actively participate,
you will not have a voice in your next
assignment. We are here to support you and
answer any questions you may have.
Ensure your AIM2 resume is updated prior to
marketplace opening. The AIM2 resume is an
outstanding vehicle to provide additional
information about yourself and your career
accomplishments that are not reflected within
an OER. You are competing in an open
marketplace, so put your best self forward. You
never know who will read your resume, so insure
The interview process birthed by the marketplace
