Over the past few years career choices have been limited. Today’s military is becoming more attractive to individuals wanting to further their lot in life. A career in the Navy allows recruits to see the world and well as protect their country. The first step in a military career is to ask a navy recruiter what are the requirements and what are the expectations.
Basic qualifications and service commitment
The minimum age requirement for enlisted members of the Navy is 17. The maximum age is 34. If applicants have prior military service and wanting to join the reserves, the maximum age is 39. Other requirements are United States citizenship, high school graduate or GED equivalent, and high medical, moral, and legal standards.
If applicants are single parents, ask a navy recruiter for any additional details and information. Another question to ask a navy recruiter is if the applications will be accepted from parents with two or more dependants under the age of 18.
The minimum service commitment for enlisted sailors is 2-4 years. Ask your navy recruiter is the job selected requires a longer commitment.
Getting ready for enlistment
Once the initial conversation with a navy recruiter is complete, the process begins. The first step is the applicant’s attendance at the Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS). This is a two day process to determine mental and physical aptitude. From this point the enlisted go to boot camp, Officer Candidate School, or Officer Development School.
Other options are the Delayed Entry Program, Undergraduate Programs, and the Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps. Ask the navy recruiter in charge of processing applicants for further details.
Once the details of enlistment have been completed, the navy recruiter will walk you through the final details. The final processes of enlistment will progress quickly, so ensure all questions asked of a navy recruiter hold high importance.
As an enlisted sailor, a navy recruiter will be able to answer questions not normally asked during the initial interview process. Potential questions to ask a navy recruiter are what are the expectations during boot camp? Will applicant be able to have contact with their family during training?
As a future member of the Armed Forces, applicants must trust a navy recruiter to give them all required information and assist applicants in making the best decision of their lives.
