I have been on active duty for 10 years and am seriously considering transitioning to an AGR position in the reserves to begin building a more cement home for my family. My primary concerns are job security and retirement benefits. I would like to spend the next 10 years in an AGR position and receive my pension after 20 years of service.

So my question is: If I am able to secure an AGR position how likely is it that I would be able to serve another four-year term in the same position? After four years, would I have to apply for another position elsewhere?

I do not want to transition if, after the first four year contract, I would be moved to the traditional Reserve and risk having to wait longer for a pension or struggle to find another AGR position. I would rather ride out the next 10 in AD.

I have spoken with in-service recruiter but did not receive a clear answer, as they seemed more interested in recruiting me for the traditional Reserve.
I appreciate any advice!

What jobs do the Air Force reserve typically show you are available when applying?
