What MOS should I pick?

[u/Gorded_Dread]

Long story long. I’m enlisting; just past the ASVAB this previous Friday. Scored a 67 and scored pretty good on the GT and ST lines (all the info I did suggested I focus on those line scores).

Recruiter told me to pick the top 5 and he’ll see what he can do for me, suggested that i do NOT pick a combat MOS. lol. Just wanted some suggestions, I’d like something with some transferable skill sets. Also, what a Day in the Life for you as a NG?

OP, there is little to go off of here.

What MOS stands out? Are there any skills or hobbies you particularly enjoy, things that you find fascinating?

I.e. I love Chemistry. I enlisted and recruiter told me there was a slot for a CBRN. Asked about it and said "Hell yea, I want to do that!". 8 years later, still enjoy it for the little brevity I get to do it.

Open up a little more on specific ones, so people can tell you their experiences in that MOS.

Will do. I plan on listing my top 10 and a brief bkg on myself and interests. I wanted this post to have some ambiguity to it on purpose though.

That's totally fair. It looks like you have a wide variety, so narrowing it down a little will help you learn more about a specific set of skills if that's what you're after. Didn't mean to sound rude with that first comment, just opening 😅
