It's always going to be needs of the Navy really. If they've got a surplus of spots they may open it up to choices based on class rank, but that's the exception not the rule (aka they don't have to do that). It doesn't ever hurt though to make your wishes known. Who knows, maybe a spot pops up that they need a body for and if they know you're interested then maybe you get lucky. Nobody is going to advocate for your career better than you can!

As an IT you'll be dealing in networking or server admin in some form or fashion regardless. If you want to go deeper, then stick around and do a 2nd tour in a billet that's doing more what you want. You might not get every single thing you want out of your first tour, but it goes by in a flash. Once you're up for orders for your next duty station, a whooooole lot more opportunities are available to you.
