This book was released on 2003-02-01 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recruiting an all-volunteer military is a formidable task. To successfully enlist one eligible recruit, the Army must contact approximately 120 young people. The National Research Council explores the various factors that will determine whether the military can realistically expect to recruit an adequate fighting force-one that will meet its upcoming needs. It also assesses the military's expected manpower needs and projects the numbers of youth who are likely to be available over the next 20 years to meet these needs. With clearly written text and useful graphics, Attitudes, Aptitudes, and Aspirations of American Youth offers an overview of important issues for military recruiters, touching on a number of important topics including: sex and race, education and aptitude, physical and moral attributes, and military life and working conditions. In addition, the book looks at how a potential recruit would approach the decision to enlist, considering personal, family, and social values, and the options for other employment or college. Building on the need to increase young Americans' "propensity to enlist," this book offers useful recommendations for increasing educational opportunities while in the service and for developing advertising strategies that include concepts of patriotism and duty to country. Of primary value to military policymakers, recruitment officers, and analysts, Attitudes, Aptitudes, and Aspirations of American Youth will also interest social scientists and policy makers interested in youth trends.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The viability of the All Volunteer Force (AVF) depends, in large measure, on the Department of Defense's (DOD) ability to successfully recruit several hundred thousand qualified individuals each year to fill over 1,400 occupational specialties. Since the March 2003 involvement of U.S. military forces in Iraq, attracting sufficient numbers of high-quality recruits to military service has proven to be one of the greatest personnel challenges faced by DOD since the inception of the AVF. The active Army, the Army Reserve, and the Navy Reserve, for example, failed to meet their fiscal year 2005 recruiting goals. Recruitment of high-quality personnel is a tough proposition, made even more challenging in the current environment when the nation is engaged in combat operations. To exacerbate the recruitment challenges further, DOD estimates that over half of the youth in the U.S. population between the ages of 16 and 21 do not meet the minimum requirements to enter military service. Moreover, additional factors such as the shrinking numbers of new recruits in delayed entry programs and the Army Army's use of stop loss, which delays servicemembers from leaving active duty, indicate that the components may experience continued recruiting challenges as they attempt to meet their personnel requirements. To help overcome recruiting challenges, the military services during the past several years have assigned roughly 20,000 recruiters to manage their recruiting programs and achieve their accession goals.

Book excerpt: DoD faces a significant challenge in recruiting & retaining the hundreds of thousands of new recruits it enlists each year. The last few years have been difficult for the military services as they have struggled to meet their recruiting goals. This recruiting crisis makes the services' problems with first-term attrition rates even more critical. The early separation of new recruits is costly in that the services' recruiting & training investment in each enlistee averages almost $38,000. This report assesses: (1) the services' responses to recent recruiting shortfalls, & (2) the services' efforts to reduce their historically high attrition rates for first-term enlistees. Charts & tables.

This book was released on 1984 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an effort to improve food service recruiting and retention, Navy mess management specialists (MS's) were surveyed about their initial recruitment and their future reenlistment plans. About 42% reported that they did not want to become MS's in the first place, but accepted that rate as an expedient to get into the Navy. They reported receiving little recruitment information about the MS rate and believed that much of what they did receive was biased or untrue. Since inadequate recruiting information can cause later disillusionment, recruiters should be provided with more information about the MS rate, including visual aids. Only about half of the MS's planned to reenlist. Initially selecting more personnel oriented towards food service careers should lower costs in recruitment and training while improving morale and productivity. Many background factors were discovered to predict reenlistment plans. For example, older, married soldiers from small towns and those who have some college education were more likely to reenlist. Those planning to stay cited military benefits as a primary reason, while those planning to get out cited dissatisfaction with supervision and job conditions. To keep career people, therefore, the Navy should seek to maintain military benefits while trying to improve job conditions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the long-term effects of an experimental Army program that links active and reserve tours. The program, called the "2+2+4 recruiting option," allows new entrants to serve a two-year tour in the Active Component (AC), a two-year tour in a Selected Reserve Component (RC) unit, and then four years in the Individual Ready Reserve. RAND designed the new enlistment option and evaluated the program in a congressionally mandated, controlled experiment. An earlier study showed that the program expanded the market for high-quality enlistees and helped staff hard-to-fill Army occupations. This study shows that 2+2+4 participants are more likely to complete their AC tour and join a RC unit than are other high-quality recruits. Program participants had lower first-term attrition and reenlistment rates than other high-quality recruits, so the program increased the pool of soldiers separating from the AC and available to the RC. In addition, the RC affiliation rate was 80 percent for 2+2+4 participants, as compared with only 43 percent for other recruits. The study concludes that the program helps the AC achieve its recruiting objectives and that it channels trained, experienced personnel into the RC.
