Procedure

Step 1: Assess Current Workload

• Count Enlisted Folders:
  • Review all Enlisted folders processed by S1 and RTC. These are identified by stickers in the title.
• Review Team Workloads:
  • Check the current workload of Team 1 and Team 2 by reviewing the number of folders they are currently working on.
• Example:
  • If there are 8 folders processed by S1 and RTC ready for S2 folder creation, and Team 1 currently has 5 folders in progress while Team 2 has 3 folders in progress, assign 3 new folders to Team 1 and 5 to Team 2. This ensures an equal distribution of work.

Step 2: Folder Creation Process

Open the following tabs in your browser:

• Enlisted Forms
  • RTC Recruit Folders
