I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at US Army (San Antonio, TX)
Interview
It is a long arduous process of screening your mind and body. It spanned all day for two days, they put you in a hotel with all the other applicants. They test you with the ASVAB test, then you get a medical screening.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Have you graduated high school, have you been to jail....
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.
