In contrast, between places like Afghanistan and Qutar and Kuwait, more will come out of pocket in those place compared to Afghan, etc. Thanks for the positive feedback!

I am a very candid person so I will say this in regards to your potential ITT employment; make sure you look around at ALL contracting prospects!! The hard part is, actually getting to that point of having the option to choose. So, comparing rewards from different contracting prospects is difficult when you only have one come your way for the past few years. Next steps were to guage the market and possibly find another smaller, specialized company after completing my initial contract to move for higher pay.

But, any further insite on how I should approach this endevour would be greatly appreciated. Over 18 would be the minimum. They are usually looking for over 21 but they do hire folks under I checked on that today with HR.

The HR rep. So, I was just curious as to how long I should wait until I contact my recruiter back. You usually will hear back very quickly; just a few days. I would expect you would get something today, or tomorrow.

If not by then, then contract your recruiter. Thank you Bill for the quick response. Will sit on it for a couple of days and see what comes through.

Thanks again! I had a quick couple of questions for you. I submitted the clearance paper work about 2 weeks ago. As far as you know, what are these villas like? Will there be alot of us living there? Hell, I lived in a tent for a year so anything is an improvement! Just curious! Once I finished with all of the testing and follow up with occu-med?

He stated that I was, clear and good to go. This is how it worked out for me. Hey Seth, it is just like Falcon77 says it is. Your rep. That usually happens within 3 days of completing your physical with them.

You can verify with your HR person. Be sure and ask for extensions from Occumed if you have to clear something up with your own personal physician, at your expense. It does seem like overkill on the physical, shots, and all, but it is worth it. From getting kicked out completely and sent home, to being held over for a week to try and reconcile things with the medical staff there. Out of my class of 10 from ITT that went to Atterbury, none of us had issues, but were were clearly the exception to the process.

I know if takes longer for others. If they asked for extra information, then, I guess they are evaluating that. I would be sure and follow up with the security rep. They are just like a city condo. Typically they have about sq feet and 2 bedrooms, shared living space and kitchen. You would have a roommate, share internet and maid service at your expense. They are plenty nice enough. Most come furnished with furniture and basic kitchen necessities.

You may have a larger one with 3 or 4 bedrooms; hence 2 or 3 roommates then. There are many westerners here. Most villas are located in mid and high rise buildings; and the whole building is usually English speaking westerners. Usually the building will have a pool and a work out room as well. Thank you for all the information this place is hands down the best place for information regarding contracting in the middle east i want to personally thank all who have contributed and as far as occu-med i will call my recruiter tomorrow and find out once again thank you all -seth.

Thanks for the fast replies and in-depth answers Bill. Greatly appreciated man! As in month kind of waits. Just trying to realistically adjust my level of expectation here. Fantastic insight as to the living conditions as well good sir, thank you. Much better than the near random stream of consciousness I received from my recruiter when asked the same questions. Quick question, regarding the mail.

Is there an APO address we can receive mail to or can it be sent directly to the villa? Also are there any restrictions as in where we can order from i. Again, I thank all of you guys that contribute to this blog! Its very VERY informative and has helped answer alot of questions before we could even ask them! The full clearance time frame can be quite long. I believe, like you were told, up to several months.

You might want to inquire with Exelis why they are going this route and not bringing you over with an interim clearance. Most places you end up will offer APO service. Certainly in Kuwait and Qatar, that would be the case. In Kuwait, you would live in the city, but most likely work on one of the bases; where you can pick up your APO shipments. You should be able to receive shipments from any e-tailer that would allow shipment to an APO.

Not sure if you can direct ship something to a villa. Not sure on that question. And of course, there is a long list of forbidden things to ship such as alcohol, and explicit material into Islamic countries. Keep the feedback coming! After you got your shots what was your next process? I went over with another company and I knew my next step before they came up and its kind of like what in the world is going on?

Like I stated before, great and very informative blog fellas. I guess I was just curious if you will be creating a new blog on some other topic that may be just as informative and beneficial to all of us? Just wondering if you might consider publishing a new, even more thorough, detailed blog documenting your experience.

I know alot of the experiences may differ from person to person, position to position, but it seems most of us are interested in the events leading up to us finally being on the ground at our assigned locations.

RGonzales, Thanks for the feedback! However I can help, I will. Hey TD… Thanks for the response. Yes, I have to. So far looks like everything is going good. If there is anyone out there that has the same position, can you tell me what the work is like and better describe the pay? My base hourly rate is Thanks alot everyone and any further info on the OSP position would help me out great. So I am waiting on occu-med paperwork. I already have a clearance. I am filling a Systems Administrator position.

Any idea what that will be like? Good stuff! Our Sys Admin guys typically create and manage our computer images, create and manage objects within our OU, server back-ups, automated system reboots, system patches, etc.

Sounds like pretty typical SA work. Thanks for the quick reply. This blog seems to have answered all my other questions but I will make sure to post here if I think of any others. Just thought of one haha. You mentioned certifications are reimbursed. Does each FOB have access to a testing facility? I heard the same as well from other colleagues who have been out there previously. The position listed, from my understanding is usually not categorized at the same level most of us would consider a position back here in the states.

Like it was explained to me to think of it as a Sys Admin was your highest level of desktop support back here in the states or at least at an entry level systems administrator. Like my situation. Protecting and securing your patient health, financial, and personel data through encryption systems, data loss prevention measures, and encrypted SSL remote access.

At RGonzalez they put me in a Help Desk position lol. Right now, my clearance had just begun processing as they wanted additional information from me before fully submiting the SF While I was medically processing, getting my shots was the last step in the Occu-Med clearing process before being sent to IN.

Results in this process are reported back to your recruiter. I received an e-mail from Occu-Med notifying me of whether or not I was medically cleared and my recruiter was awesome about keeping in touch with me.

I to am awaiting occu-med paperwork I have a clearance and ill be filling a helpdesk administrator position any idea as to what that will be like. That info was very helpful. And yes I have been keeping all of my documents. I have not yet gotten a leave date, but soon after you got your clearing from Occ-Med how long was it before you were leaving to go to IN, my training is in South Carolina. If I rememeber correctly, I was gone within a week of being cleared!

My recruiter pretty much called me and asked if I was ready to leave within two days of being medically cleared as there was space available amongst the ITT group to allow this. My recruiter just emailed me and asked me when I was ready to depart to MDC. So happy right now. My only question is where is MDC and have you ever heard of it before?

When did you finally hear from Kuwait, for you residency. Did you get that before you left the states. I was told it may take weeks to get the okay. Most will go to IN. At the CRC you can use your laptop and pay for wireless access while in the barracks. You will NOT have access to a printer; you will have access to a copier.

Make plenty of copies of your medical records. Most of the CRC is a weeding out of those who do not medically qualify. Many companies send people there and just hope for the best. With ITT, if you recruiter did things right, it will be smooth sailing and they will have all of your paperwork on file and you will breeze through the 2 days of medical.

When you arrive in IN, sign in at USO at baggage claim and wait at door 6 outside for the s school bus to transport you to Atterbury. If you arrive on Saturday after the mess hall closes, around pm , there is nowhere to eat. Except a bar on base and a Subway; both close at 9PM on Saturday night. At the break of day for an hour, and 1. Not open for lunch, you are given something equivalent of an MRE for lunch each day.

I was at Subway a lot. There is a PX on site, decent, across from the Subway. Everything there is far apart, be prepared to walk a lot.

First day there, company rep, will meet you with your LOA. Make 12 copies of this and 10 of your passport; everyone will ask for a copy of these. You will then fill out a w-4 for and tax and payroll information. This somehow will not make it to ITT in the middle east. Be sure and do this AGAIN when you get to Kuwait as they will not have it and not have your tax exemption if you choose that option.

Or better, make a copy and be sure and give to finance in Kuwait upon arrival at transient housing Mahboula, Kuwait. Make sure your dentist SIGNED your form with the signature and license number on their clearance sheet that you have with you. Buy 2 medium storage locks for your locker in IN and elsewhere. This is just like regular wheeled luggage except more heavy duty wheels.

You are allowed ONE carry on, one bag for armor which you will pack in IN, one or two bags for your personal stuff. All of which, you must be able to carry at one time. So, if you can, buy something with wheels that is approved. Which I would have known that. You will have to spend hours on common computers completing T-Sirts. On-Line training on various military topics. Get an early start on this and print out your certificate when complete.

Some of this you will have to skirt by on as all courses do not work properly on each computer and through the AKO website. On the bulletin board in this common room use the odd looking URL to access courses.

I found that easier than going through AKO or trying to use what was loaded on the common computers. This is required and this will have to be done for you to make it through the process. Weather in this part of IN is quite fickle. June-August Be prepared for mornings in the summer that are as cold as 45 degrees. Then in the afternoon it might be You will file an expense report upon arrival at the transient housing on day 2 of orientation.

Make copies. This will paid out on the 2nd paycheck you receive. You will make insurance choices at this time as well. You will have free wireless internet access in Manboula even though it will be very very slow. You will get the corporate briefings from leadership, finance, HR, and ombudsman during orientation. There is a large pool and gym there if you care to enjoy on floor 2 of the building.

The duffle bag issue was something I had been wondering about. Thanks again for all the info. Awesome as usual and thanks for all the heads up.

My recruiter said that the company has done away with dental, and I was wondering if anybody else knew how true this was. Dental: Unless it has changed in the last month, there is still a very basic dental plan when you choose to have health care coverage.

Something like that. So, not very good, but there is a plan. But, not a good one. There is NO company match whatsoever. A big disappointment for a multi-billion dollar company. You can participate in the traditional K or a Roth with deductions in your paycheck and it is managed by Prudential. However, you are limited to choosing to invest your money into funds that are of course, managed by Prudential, and the choices are limited to like 20 or so mutual fund accounts.

RGonzales: Those rolling duffels look just fine to me. I was amazed at what they did let on the plane. There were clearly some non-military luggage. The gear is what they sell in the PX stores, so that is an indication they are military ready.

I did see some with 3 wheels instead of just 2 on the bottom. If possible, find those, something with large wheels that will roll in the endless sand you will encounter. Also, bring IDs for your luggage that clearly mark your luggage and other gear from the others. All green duffels look the same, especially in the dark.

TDMello has mentioned this weeks ago. So, the more obnoxious you can make your bags, the better. Remember 1 of these bags will be carrying your armor, and those all look the same hence bring something with you that you can attach to that bag during travel.

However, even with that, the web site will probably not cooperate with you to get those done. ITT will send you info on doing this; getting the AKO account and doing the training, but I doubt they will work for you. They did not for me. I ended up taking a course I did not need. I completed them all at Atturbury, but it was a pain. Thanks Bill for the quick response and good deal on the luggage.

I figured, worse case scenario, I can use my wheeled bag and have an extra duffle bag in my gear in case I have to ditch the wheeled luggage for some reason. Will there be any other steps in the process? Or will I be given my orders to ship out the within a week or so? Falcon You should be ready to go then except for a few more shots. After Occu-med clears you and you get that verified by your HR recuriter, you will probably will get one more round of shots before leaving.

Other than that, it would seem that you are just waiting on your clearance. ITT travel office will schedule you a one way flight to Atturbury or SC from your home of record, that takes a day or so once everything is in place. Man thanks again for getting back to me so quickly! About a week and a half ago I took that second batch of shots. Reading all the steps and stages from this blog it would appear most if not all of my pre CRC paperwork and requirements are complete.

One other quick question for you. Im also going in as a help desk admin i second that question ill be leaving for ndc on 14 of july is there a specific subject that i should study being as im new to this aswell. How are the work hours in Kuwait and work days? I know what my offer letter states but how true is it. Daniel: Your offer letter will be accurate. If it says 60 hours, and most likely does for Kuwait, it will be 60 hours. After your first 40, it varies on overtime pay.

For example: Kuwait does pay overtime after 40 hours, I believe 1. Offer letters are different depending on job and country, but it will be accurate pertaining to ultimate hours worked on the job site.

Do you know of anyone who has brought family over, and did they say how it is going? Is it worth bringing your spouse and children over. How long does it take to get them over? I do not personally know anyone that has brought over their family to Kuwait.

Since housing is part of your compensation, I would ask ITT how that would work. You certainly could do that if you wanted.

There are are state schools here, but everyone sends their children to private themed western schools at a cost. So school for children is not an issue. Remember though, this is a male dominated culture. Certainly there are women here of all varieties and professions; from the most conservative Arab type to western liberal; in dress and attitude.

There are plenty of western comforts here in regards to restaurants and shopping for everyone and family. Both of these are about a 30 minute drive out of Kuwait City. Falcon Hours vary by site. Some are 24 hour operations, some not. Usually, you will have that 5 twelve hour day thing with 2 days off. Just depends on how big your location is and how your site manager handles things. A lot rests on your work site manager and what they deem works best for that site. That is if you can, most cannot access the right area before Atterbury.

TDMello might have a suggestion. That goes for a war zone site or Kuwait. Lots of sand, heat, and eat. Work is entertainment here for most of us. Should we just bring normal clothing or tactical rugged gear such as 5. Clothing depends on your position, indoors or outdoors. ITT hires for both, so prepare accordingly. Your site manager will dictate how casual you will be and it also depends on your customers; i.

Wear and bring those clothes that you feel comfortable with have or purchased for this tour. Everyone has their own style and it is varied. Maybe TDMello can weigh in. Sorry I had not respond sooner as I have been traveling a lot.

I am going to Afghanistan with my roommate as a Help Desk Admin, who determines which base you will end up at? How many different bases are there? Which phone company do you suggest? What type of phone do you suggest we purchase? How many sim cards? How do we add minutes? I received an email from my security recruiter that said they will know if i qualify for an Interim within a week.
