I attended OASC well over a month ago for the CWOS board, along with 7 other MACr. The second part of the regular board finished today, and manning will decide who gets the job/s over the next couple of weeks.
On the OASC morning and just prior to interview, Gp Capt OASC chatted to us and said that "the job of OASC today is to grade the candidates like a promotion board, and that would be there only part in the process". They would then pass the graded results over to manning. Remarkably, he then said that even if you were to come last on this selection board, you may still be the only guy to be offered a commissioned job ??
The talk of numbers for CWOS from this years' board is 1 X ALM (or possibly Eng - unlikely) and 1X AEOp. This is only rumour though. Awaiting results, but not holding my breath as there are some bad rumours out there.
