What are the responsibilities and job description for the Surface Warfare Officer position at US Navy Reserve?
Pursuing a civilian career doesn't have to mean getting stuck in the corporate world. As a current or former Navy Surface Warfare Officer, there are plenty of part-time opportunities to use your leadership skills and talent in an environment that is constantly changing. Whether it is family obligations, career aspirations, or simply wanting to settle down and settle in, these are the things that lead many SWOs to leave active duty. However, in the Navy Reserve, you can achieve all of the above while still continuing your Naval career.
The mission of the Navy Reserve is to provide strategic depth and deliver operational capabilities to the Navy and Marine Corps team and Joint forces in times of peace or war. Navy Reserve Sailors seamlessly support and actively aid that mission, all while leading their own independent lives in the civilian world.
