MOS selection list/life style
So I'm(26m) transitioning from an army recruitment office over to Air Force for a dozen reasons, the strongest being that the air force has much better careers to choose from and a shorter average deployment length(I'm married so the wife needs me home when she gets pregnant).
I scored a very good MAGE score of M:96 A:87 G:89 E:95 and got it certified at MEPS with army without doing any oaths or a physical yet. Now, I'm deciding what my list of MOS should be to be very marketable in the civilian world after my service. So far my selection is as follows ranked from most favorable to least:
9S100- Scientific Applications Specialist - ASVAB: M88 E85 - Color Vision - Top Secret Clearance
2P0X1 - Precision Measurement Equipment Laboratory (PMEL) - ASVAB: E72 - Color Vision - Secret Clearance
1N2X1A/C - Signals Intelligence Analyst - ASVAB: G72 - No vision requirements - Top Secret Clearance
1C6X1 - Space Systems Operations - ASVAB: E70 - Color Vision Required - Top Secret Clearance
1C8X3- Radar, Airfield, and Weather Systems (RAWS) - ASVAB: E70 - Color Vision Required - Secret Clearance
1U0X1 - Remotely Piloted Aircraft Sensor Operator - ASVAB: G-64 or E-54 - Color Vision Required - Top Secret/SCI Clearance
1N4X1B - Network Intelligence Analyst - ASVAB: G - 62 - No vision requirements - Top Secret Clearance
1C3X1 - Command and Control Operations - ASVAB: A55/G67 - Color Vision Required - Top Secret
2A6X1 - Aerospace Propulsion - ASVAB: M60 - Color Vision Required - Secret Clearance
3E5X1 - Engineering Technician/Engineering Assistant (EA) - ASVAB: G49 - Color Vision Required - Secret Clearance
Is this a good selection for someone who wants to work in a high-level contracting position after my service? And are these roles realistically attainable?
