3. Explore new opportunities to serve
With expanded availability and increased visibility, MNA is your tool to explore jobs of interest and begin charting
career possibilities. Do not wait until your detailing window; begin today to consider future jobs of interest.
Determine what skillsets are required for potential jobs and look to improve your resume and become more
competitive for future assignments. Bookmark jobs you want to keep “front and center” as you return to MNA for
career planning
3a. Expanded job search capability
MNA increases your visibility to all generated jobs
(vacancies) in the detailing cycle, both jobs that are open for
application and closed (not available for application due to
mission requirements). You will only be able to apply for
those jobs in the open category during the application phase,
but can view, research and bookmark any generated job
throughout the entire cycle.
3b. Job Search tools
MNA allows you to conduct detailed job searches using a
wide variety of search criteria.
• Search All - Page displays all jobs, based on a Sailor's
rating and paygrade (up/down one paygrade).
• Jobs By My Preference - Page displays jobs by the
current items selected in My Preferences. (Refer to
page 6 for setting preference options.)
• My Bookmarks – Page displays up to 100 jobs of
interest that were bookmarked.
• Saved Searches - This function stores the currently selected set of search criteria and allows you to name the
search. You can save up to twelve searches, and saved searches are retained for
up to five years.
• Jobs By My Qualifications - Qualification Match Indicators provide a quick
reference on your suitability for a job in terms of qualifications, current
assignment and duty preferences. The indicators resemble traffic lights, and the
colors carry the same connotations: a green light indicates favorable conditions; a
yellow light implies caution; and a red light indicates a poor match.
Search filters – Type Duty, Communities (including Rate
Commonality matches), Mapped Communities (Special
Program Jobs), Job Status (including Advance to Position
[A2P]), Pay Grade, Location, Service Component
(Active/FTS), Additional (including Incentive Pay).
