I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at US Army (Stockbridge, GA) in June 2011
Interview
Have a high school diploma and a good asvab score. After meeting with recruiters you are taken to a regional processing center for paper work and physical evaluation. After that you are shipped out to basic training at the military's expense. After a ten week basic training you are shipped to advanced individual trading school where you are trained in your specific mos.
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.
