I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at US Navy (Chicago, IL) in Jan 2013
Interview
you are required to pass the asvab test. your asvab score must at least a 32 to qualify. you are screened for drugs. a background check is also required.
It was easy enough. Recruiter, paperwork, physical, done. It doesn’t get much simpler than that honestly. Not much else to say. There are recruiters in pretty much every city or state, so it is very easy to find one.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at US Navy (San Antonio, TX)
Interview
Went to recruiter, he was knowledgeable about the basic of the military, but not so much about everything that changes constantly. I went there weekly for PT and to get a weight check to make sure I was within standards.
