Hi, I am considering a Title 10 AGR position at NGB and was wondering what people’s experience has been. I have a contact over there and he seemed to enjoy his experience. It seems like most positions are in the Arlington area, but he has had to move a few times.

1. How often do you need to move?
2. Are most positions located in the Northern Virginia, DC area?
3. How does it work for command time?

For reference, I am 1LT promotable with about 5 years in service.

Hi, I have seen many questions on this subreddit about students wanting to transfer to a better, higher ranked school. I understand the process can be challenging for a number of reasons including but not limited to; how challenging it is to get good grades, limited seat availability, class rank considerations, credits not matching up perfectly, and cumbersome application requirements.

However, I am wondering how challenging it would be for a student to transfer to a similarly ranked school. Let’s say a top 50 to a top 55, or something like that. If a student achieved middle of the pack grades and class rank for both schools, would it be relatively easy to transfer? Assuming there are seats available and the application is completed accurately.

I am outside the US and keep getting Google search results for my current region in a foreign language, even after changing my settings. I made sure the region said “United States” and not “Current Region” and even tried translating the page, which didn’t work either.

I understand that Google often ignores language and region settings in favor of IP-based location detection, which makes no sense to me. What is the purpose of changing the settings if Google is just going to ignore them?

I tried using a VPN, but the WiFi I am using won’t connect properly with a VPN enabled. Seems like all this fancy technology is pretty much useless anytime you actually need it.

Is there a better way around this?

I am wondering what my chances are at re-entering the IB industry after a temporary FINRA suspension. Here is my story:

4 years ago I was caught accessing notes during a FINRA administered exam. I eventually accepted an 18 month bar from the industry which has since expired. I was young and very new to the industry and made an admittedly dumb mistake. It was very out of character for me and besides this, I have an excellent professional and personal record.

Since the incident I have been working at a non-profit while serving in the Army reserve. I recently completed a combat deployment where I earned the Bronze Star, and regularly volunteer with religious and veteran organizations. Looking forward, I am headed to a top 5 foreign affairs school this Fall and am considering doing a dual MBA (top 15). I am interested in possibly re-entering the industry if I can find a bank that is willing to hear my story.

I am hoping my behavior and experience since the incident would somewhat mitigate the stigma. I have heard of people who have done much worse that continued to work in finance. Has anyone heard of someone with a previous suspension make it back into the industry?
