If there is no vacancy however, is it even possible for them to give a new hire GUM? Just trying to plan on if I should start looking at houses in one of the other bases if Guam is impossible at this point.
Not possible. It has to be offered to those on the SL first. I’m simplifying things a little, but if it’s not available under an unexpired vacancy, it won’t be available to new hires. If Guam is your goal, though, just bid the 737 somewhere where you like and it’ll be an option eventually.
