In/out call list updated

A career planning tool that allows enlisted soldiers to make informed decisions about switching jobs has been updated to reflect the latest manning requirements for nearly 200 military occupational specialties.

Also, a force alignment incentive that encourages soldiers in overstrength MOSs to retrain and re-enlist in priorities specialties has been updated, but the bonus payments generally are smaller than in the recent past.

The reclassification “in/out” calls that were updated in late October provide a listing of short-handed specialties that are open to transfer, and MOSs that are closed to immigration because they are overstrength.

Information in the calls is updated three to four times each year, based on changes in force structure and manning requirements.

The calls drive re-enlistment options as well as reclassification actions, said Jim Bragg, chief of enlisted retention and reclassification at Human Resources Command.
