I applied in-person. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at US Air Force (Seattle, WA) in May 2011
Interview
I met with the Commander and had a 90-minute interview where we discuss the position and my background coming from my Peterson tour. I told my assignment team I wanted to apply for this hot job in Seattle and then I called the office in Seattle directly and received an appointment to meet with the Commander. That same day he called my current Commander in CO to ask if I could be released to take the hot job.
