I have recently been merit listed for an AVS Tech and am excitingly awaiting a phone call for an offer, but there are a few questions I still seek answers for:
1) How often can AVS techs deploy (I expect the "it depends" answer will appear, but any additional insight would be appreciated)
2) Are deployments 6-9 months regardless of the trade you are in?
3) Beyond Basic and Occupational training, is there a lot of additional mandatory training that can take you away from home for extended periods of time?
The reason for these questions is to give my SO and I a better idea of how this career will affect our relationship. We want to prepare as best we can for the challenges ahead. Thanks in advance for your help
