I just wanted to add, in case anyone else finds this while searching, I had a similar situation.
I had 10+ years in the reserves by Summer 2016. I came to selection via the National Guard, and kept my rank and MOS as an E6. I Just missed the waiver period for TIS on my second attempt at selection (although the stories change on waiver enforcement for the NG soldiers). My pipeline looked like this:
*Inter-component transfer, it took 5 months leaving the USAR to Contract with UTANG
*4 months drilling, conducting SFRE events, I hit SFAS after 6 months in the guard.
*21 day non-select, 12 month return date, class 08-17.
*Refit, retrain, and attended SFAS again at 18 months after non-selection. I was selected in class 03-19
*Currently awaiting Airborne, 7 months out of selection. Q begins in Fall.
I can reaffirm, push yourself on Team Week, harder than you think you can.
