Been this MOS 4 years now. By the love of God try not to get Fort Bragg / Liberty straight of AIT. If you want to advance your career and anything meaningful training.
It was explained to me this way: 35S learns how to collect, analyze, and report signals. 35N does analysis and reporting exclusively. So a Sierra can do a November's job, but a November can't do a Sierra's job.
I was a 35S you’ll have an opportunity to work on NSA ops floors. It’s like not even being in the Army but getting all of the benefits. My last assignment was Alice Springs, Australia. Most of my assignments were plain clothes and I rarely did organized PT because we were on shift work. 35S with advanced schooling makes it very easy to get a contractor job after the Army. 35N aren’t as technically sound as Sierras, and they truly aren’t needed.
@@asterios4888 primary functions of this mos are at TS level and private contractors position are there, with this exact title. There multiple supplemental functions as a System Engineer, Network Administrator, Systems Administrator, IT Security Specialist, Cloud Engineer and etc, coupled with an active clearance this would make you marketable but you’d still need formal college to make even more competitive in today’s environment.
