I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at US Army (Louisville, KY) in July 2014
Interview
Unnecessary personal questions about one's past; a mockery of a physical exam; no mental exam (no intelligence required); forced/aggressive choice of "jobs;" you are completely unprepared AND no one tells you what really lies ahead with regards to training and actual duty.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They ask you about your "criminal history." Be prepared to act as if everything was your fault and be prepared to explain yourself.
They sit you in an old building and ask you about yourself and your medical history. Then they document all this info before they have you sign a documents and waivers.
Just go to your local recruiter and take the ASVAB. After completing OSUT, you'll become an infantryman (11B). You'll be assigned your unit upon graduating. Make sure to stay in good physical shape.
You express interest and they call you. You will have to answer some basic questions about yourself and take a placement test. Then you will be sent to a medical processing facility to do a medical exam.
