I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at US Army (Tacoma, WA) in Mar 2013
Interview
Interview process was very simple. You work hard to get the rank you need. Job opening comes up. Talk to your higher. If need be youll talk to someone who is one step higher to make sure you are the correct person for the position.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at US Army (Winston-Salem, NC) in Dec 2011
Interview
Selection is based on background and recommendations. No formal interview. It is a lengthy process and will require you work with a recruiter. Again, there's no interview per se. You will be required to pass a background check and medical screening, among other checkpoints and hurdles. Make sure to review your contract carefully.
There really isn't an interview process other than just meeting with the recruiter. The recruiter pretty much tells you all of the different jobs and options that the Army has to offer.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They always asked about past history because they would find out regardless. The always pull your credit report as well as your police report.
