Veterinary Career Ladder, AFS 908X0.

Abstract

Inventory booklets were administered to Veterinary (AFSC 908XO) personnel worldwide. Survey results are based on the responses from 690 AFS 908XO incumbents (76 percent of assigned). A majority of the incumbents surveyed were assigned to TAC, SAC, MAC, AFSC, or ATC. DAFSC 908XO personnel spend a majority of their job time performing subsistence inspection, food facilities sanitation, and animal medical care tasks. The six major groups of jobs and four smaller independent job types were differentiated primarily on the varying amount of time spent on the various functions. The six clusters were Veterinary Clinic Personnel, Food Inspectors, Veterinary Services Supervisors, Medical Evaluation Personnel, Animal Research Personnel, and Animal Services Personnel. The Food Inspectors made up the largest cluster (27 percent of sample) and concentrated primarily on performing various aspects of subsistence inspection. The four independent job types identified were Animal Medical Care and Food Inspection Personnel, Warehouse Inspection Personnel, Offshore Quality Control Supervisors, and Veterinary Instructors. The Offshore Quality Control Supervisors were performing a unique job in that these incumbents were responsible for performing various specialized subsistence inspections in Europe.
