I applied through other source. I interviewed at US Navy
Interview
No interview really. Just a Navy Wide Advancement Exam. If you study you rear end off, and generally are squared away, you shouldn't have a problem advancing up to E6, depending on you rate. Gets harder when you want to move to Khakis.
It was amazing! Make sure you are ready to leave your safety net and explore new adventures. The physical test is not as easy as you would think. There are a lot of other people from all over the US that you will see as well.
