I applied through other source. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at US Navy (San Diego, CA)
Interview
Applying to be a commissioned officer in the military (specifically the Navy, as this is my service) is completely different than civilian organizations. You may never meet the hiring manager when you interview. I have interviewed many people to become an officer, through different commissioning programs. I have completed a standard interviewing appraisal for each applicant that is then sent off to a hiring board for consideration.
