I've played a few shifts with Artorius as Sec and a handful more with them as Detective. Seemed competent as an officer and has been good to have on the team as a Detective, but I haven't had any memorable experiences.
That being said, it might just be time zones or something, but I haven't seen you all that much as Sec in general and don't think we've had a shift together in several weeks. 'In my opinion, Sec's one of this roles that more than any other role in the game requires just a sheer amount of exposure and repeat experience to build up your confidence, skillset, and gives you exposure to all of the different personalities/approaches that other SecOffs have.
More than that, gaining the beret and becoming a HoS is more than a culmination of being a good SecOff - it's a role that requires adept communication, leadership, and organization from the player on top of their skills as Sec. More than any other role, a HoS has the ability to dramatically change the pace, mood, and course of a shift.
I'd recommend you keep putting time in as Sec, try taking on a pseudo-leadership role when you play, helping to manage communications, check up on the happenings, and demonstrate that you're a leader within the Sec team.
At this time, based on your application alone and the dissonance it seems to demonstrate between your intent/understanding and the true role of a HoS (leadership/communication) along with a personal lack of experience with you I can't recommend you for HoS. That being said, I love that you're interested and hope you're not discouraged from giving it another go in the future if it doesn't materialize this time around. Focus your application on what you can bring to the table as a fixer of issues, someone who brings the Sec team together, and a great communicator, rather than someone who is more interested in being an NTSO (which is somewhat more of a gimmick role for HoS players, honestly) and you'll be in a good spot!
