I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at US Navy (Morristown, NJ) in January 2015.
Interview
If you meet all the requirements to join the military you are hired. The delayed enlistment program can be lengthy for nukes. I'm not sure how long the wait time is but in 2013 it was about 6 months.
