I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at US Navy (Patchogue, NY) in Jan 2010
Interview
Recruiters will approach you in a public setting(mall, street fair) or at public high schools. There are also offices in which you can walk in. Before signing a contract they will make you take the ASVAB and take you line scores and see which jobs you qualify for. Urinalysis is the next step. After you make a few trips to the nearest MEPS(military entrance processing station) where you will be given your contract to sign and there they will also do medical testing (physical, eye sight hearing, urinalysis) after that you wait til your ship date to go to basic training (Recruit Training Command-Great Lakes, IL)
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Not many difficult questions. The hardest one is what type of job you want. You're stuck with that job for a while.
Quick and easy. Very little effort and they were ready to sign the papers within the hour. The testing portion was the only difficult part. Quick and easy. Very little effort and they were ready to sign the papers within the hour. The testing portion was the only difficult part.
The interview process required to join the united states navy is a complex, complicated, and paper work filled haze. There is the ASVAB test, and quite a few other pre qualifications. See your local recruiter.
