I'm in the USCG as a Port Security Specialist and a reservist. I'm curious how reservists are treated by the administrators in your departments. Are they considered more valuable due to additional training, or a handicap because of potential deployments? Are they (though this is illegal) "discriminated" against in the hiring process because of potential inconvenience for the department? I'm looking at middle sized cities to larger ones and, though each is different, I'd really like to hear about your experiences.
edit: i'm 19 and a college student, so obviously I cant apply for any positions for at least a year and a half, but I'm just throwing this out there.
