I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at US Navy in Jul 2009
Interview
Talk to your local Navy recruiter. Pass the ASVAB. Talk to your recruiter about the Delayed Entry Program. Be willing to give up x amount of years to the government.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Should you lie about your background in order to enlist, and risk being charged with fraudulent enlistment? I.E. Have you ever used drugs or drank underage?
Your recruiter will tell you to lie, but your recruit division commander at boot camp will threaten you to confess the truth. To this day, I still don't know which of them genuinely represented the Navy's best interests.

Question 1
What was my medical history. I understand why to an extent but if I am evaluated by their doctor prior to entry anyway, why do I have to share prior information.

Interview
Unqualified recruiters enlist people by following a guide book. Recruiters are not your friend, and receive "commission" for enlistments. People need to educate themselves before stepping foot into a recruiting office.
