I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at US Air Force (San Diego, CA)
Interview
Took a test to prepare for the ASVAB. Basic high school education will suffice. Also, be within weight limits and physically active for basic training. You will need to possibly enlist in the delayed entry program until the it's a slot available and so research on the job you would like in the Air Force.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at US Air Force (Saint Petersburg, FL) in Jan 2011
Interview
Met up with the recruiter and showed interest in joining the USAF. One thing that I noticed is that the recruiter would very rarely call back. It seemed that enough people were applying and showing interest that he had no need to go and contact potential recruits himself. After multiple personal visits we finally filled out all the proper paperwork to get me into the DEP (delayed entry program) and to initiate my security clearance. After about 10 months of being in the DEP I was sent to MEPS and from there into basic training.
