I applied through other source. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at US Navy (Great Lakes, IL)

First is MEPS. This is where they test you mentally, medically and physically. There is a 3 hour ASVAB exam, they test your eyesight, depth perception, hearing, flexibility, and they take your BMI(Body Mass Index) and or your BCA(Body Composition Analysis). Then there is Basic Training! 7-9 Weeks of learning attention to detail, Naval tradition and courtesies, Naval history, team work and discipline.

Other Operations Specialist Interview Reviews for US Navy
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at US Navy (Dallas, GA) in Jan 2025
Interview
Really smooth and they answered all my questions. The team that I will be part of seemed to have a lot of knowledge and resources. Looking forward to this journey.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at US Navy (San Antonio, TX)
Interview
Recruiter was dishonest about many things. Other recruiters in office remarkably unprofessional; attempting to form inappropriate relationships with young women who are trying to do something big in their lives. Would not recommend. There is no shame is speaking with other military branches(i.e. Air Force) before making a big decision like this.

I applied in-person. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at US Navy (Norfolk, VA) in Aug 2020
Interview
Very easy, basic questions. ASVAB test you have to take. Then from there you can choose a job based on availability. Then you go to MEPS and if you pass you get a leave date to leave for bootcamp.
