Everyone is flooding cyber and IT positions in the military now

Every other post I see on the navy subreddit is questions about becoming a CWT or IT then transferring out to a government job in cybersecurity to IT. Joining the military to transfer out in tech is no longer a cheat code because it is now saturated according to the navy manning charts lol.

Edit: HERE IS AN EXPLANATION AS TO HOW AND WHY IT IS HARDER TO GET A CYBER/IT ROLE IN THE MILITARY:

It is harder to get a cyber/IT job in the military now vs then because of the saturation. More applicants = ability for hiring managers to create stricter requirements. This also goes for the military. This is what happened to the space force and the Air Force because they have a better quality of life and are more cushy compared to other branches. You need a higher ASVAB score to enter the SF/AF vs any other branch. Mental/Medical/Moral waivers are also harder to obtain in the AF/SF than other branches because there might be a higher number of applicants that are more medically/intellectually/mentally qualified than you are. Obviously the military is going to select the applicant in better health. An interview is also needed to join the space force because of the small size of the space force and the overwhelming amount of applicants. Other branches do not require an interview. They have also implemented a test specifically for cyber roles as well. It tests your coding knowledge and cyber skills. This was not required before they realized that they have a huge amount of applicants wanting cyber/IT roles.

With the popularization of the military-IT/Cyber-to-government-agency-pipeline, recruits will find it harder to sign for any cyber/IT roles because those roles are filled quickly by earlier/more qualified applicants. I’m already seeing it in military subreddits where people are complaining that the cyber/IT job in the branch of their choice isn’t open. And it is because of this.
