Monitors will discuss an officer’s record and performance, as well as their career timing and progression.  These sessions will not discuss future assignments, vacancy lists, or duty station preferences.  Officers are encouraged to schedule a board preparation and record audit counseling at least two years prior to their in-zone look.  Officers are encouraged to review the Records and Performance Section (MMPB-2) Self-Audit tool prior to the counseling session. 2.b.  Mover and Select Interviews will be offered in October 2025. The primary audience is 2026 movers.  Monitors will discuss record competitiveness, career path decision points, and other topics as required by the Monitor or desired by the Officer. Commanders and mentors are encouraged to counsel Officers prior to the interview in order to enhance the effectiveness of their mover interview. 2.c.  Failure of Selection counselings will be provided between November 2025 and January 2026.  Officers who were in-zone on calendar year 2025 promotion selection boards and not selected are the primary audience.  The secondary audience is officers, who were eligible (above-zone), for calendar year 2025 promotion selection boards, and not selected.  The intent of these counseling sessions is to discuss factors that may have contributed to the Officer’s non-selection.  Eligible officers are encouraged to request a counseling. 3.  Scheduling. Monitors will publish individual interview schedules and coordinating instructions via the Talent Management Engagement Platform which can be accessed via Officer Online.
