I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at US Army (Columbia, SC) in Jun 2011
Interview
A recruiter takes your back ground information and ask you a lot of personal questions. The questions are related to the things that you have done in the pasted, for example have you ever smoked weed. You also have to meet with the station recruiter for an interview and after they access that you are in good moral standing they will proceed with the process.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at US Army (Houston, TX) in Aug 2011
Interview
Don't let your recruiters fill out the SF86 for you. The jacked up mine royally and left me to sort out the misinformation directly with my interviewer. They will contact your listed contacts pretty quickly. Please give them a heads up, and make sure you trust your contacts. List each and every employer and address, don't summarize. Have a contact for each job, each residence, and make sure you have only one unique contact for each one. Be honest.
