I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at US Army (Fort Knox, KY) in Jan 2013
Interview
Take assessment test, go to the recruiter, Go to MEPS, swear in, pick a job, go to basic training, go to Advance Individual Training, go to your first duty station.
Easy…..just alot of paperwork. Look for medical and testing scores. Also looked at jobs I wanted. Would say the worst part was a fitness test. I would highly recommend honesty
Sit down with a recruiter and they ask questions and tell you your next steps. May need physical or take a test, Will fo over options like terms, roles and responsibilities.
It was a decent interview. Pretty easy, have the sense they are really looking to recruit new people. Would not be too worried about preparing a lot of information beforehand.
