Difficult interview

Application

I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at US Air Force (Okinawa) in Feb 2012

Interview

Very professional round-table discussion with the hiring official as well as staff members. Each member had an opportunity to ask questions, but were not looking for a textbook answer. Rather, they were curious to see my personality and non-verbals while answering.

Easy interview

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 7 months. I interviewed at US Air Force (Irving, TX)

There was no interview process, either you met the qualifications or you did not. You had to be healthy and ready for anything that is going to come your way for the military life and you had to pass the ASVAB.
