Trying to better understand National Gaurd job posts.

I've seen them for years now and I'm an IT major almost finished with my BA Degree. How would it work if I am interested in an IT job posting? Being a standard civilian can I apply of an IT job posting? Do I Have to be in the Guard BEFORE applying for jobs etc.? If not, I assume applying for a job would entail Joining the Guard; what's that process like ? Where would I have to travel too of any? Etc. I apologize I don't understand much with job postings but I keep seeing them and I'm interested but unsure if I'm allowed to apply for these positions.

Hey Joshua, These are all really great questions! It looks like from the job description that upon receiving the job you would have to join the Guard and go through basic training. I believe generally with the national guard you actually get to stay where you are. My uncle is in the Utah National Guard and he has only been deployed once I think, and only a few months. You don't normally get transferred to new locations in the Guard.

If you would like to learn more about the jobs they have, just click on the gray text box above in your post, then click the "Apply" tab. You'll see a list of jobs and can then apply for any you're interested in.

Let me know if you need anymore help!
