Each states SF unit can often do things differently.

Best bet is to call the state unit directly, and ask them who their dedicated recruiter is. You don't have to contact one state, you can contact as many as you feel comfortable living in / commuting to.

As a rule, and this may have changed. States either
1 - Put you in as an MOS like 11B or 68W kinda thing, you are assigned to another unit in state, and borrowed by the SF unit, until you are selected.
2 - Enrole you the unit directly, and reassign you should you not be selected, or give they give you another go, etc.

Some have an SFRE, some don't.

Things may have changed. Call the unit directly, ask for their prefered / dedicated recruiter. Take that recruiters word for it. Guys in unit will be less in the know, recruiters who aren't familure with that SF units recruitment practices are also less in the know. The prefered, dedicated recruiter is the one you want your G2 from.
