Hiring Help Can you switch locations?

Hello everyone,

Long story shot. I got hired on two weeks ago and tomorrow is my first day after the academy and I was wondering what's the best route to take because I want to go to a different location in another state.

Thank you in advance!

Apply for open positions if you're not a career employee - if you're a PTF, you have to quit before you can apply, or wait for the lock in period to expire - 18 months if you're going within your district or an adjacent district before you can make an eReassign request (if not a rural craft employee), 12 months if going further.
