Interviewed Jul 2010 (took a day)
The talent recruiter was very tgood at presentation and gaining interest in the advertised positions. The interview was quickly coordinated. It went very well while they asked about my past experience and future plans. Questions were posed as how I would handle certain situations and how I felt I would be successful at this new position.

Interviewed Aug 2008 (took 3 weeks)
I sat down in front of a panel. The panel was just as you see it on TV. I had to sit upright and rigid with my feet directly in front of me and my hands on my lap. I had study material and the was asked questions right from my study guide.

I mostly had a ton of paperwork to fill out. I have been out of the service for nearly two years so I have really come to enjoy being a civillian again.

They went to my college campus, and I put my name up for an interview. Three people interviewed me at once. A few hours after the interview, I was called and informed they wanted me to do a field visit, where I would also do a presentation about a topic of my choice to my future co-workers.

Personal interview was based on presentation. The agency or office to recruit personel sent me a mail with contact number to call and make an appointment with the responsible at the place of work. The interview was informative from both sides. After that, we waited a couple of days for a positive answer.

Interviewed Dec 2008 (took 2+ months)
Being recruited to be an officer in the Military is rather simple as long as you meet the minimum qualifications related to education and physical fitness. I know as a former officer recruiter I was much more interested in the people who came in with a base knowledge of the military and what it took and meant to be an officer than those who just showed up wanting to know what I could do for them.
