WORKING WITH A RECRUITER
finding the best way to serve
When you sit down with a Recruiter, he or she will make it easy to find out if the Army is right for you. Whether it's Active Duty or Army Reserve, or a certain length of service you're interested in — together with your Recruiter, you'll find the best way to serve, and choose the job that complements your abilities and future goals.
why contact a recruiter?
Only by working with a Recruiter can you tailor an Army experience to meet your goals, wants and needs. Want to take advantage of money for your education? Need certain job skills? Your Recruiter can give you the specifics on all the Army benefits to help you make the most out of your Army career.
what's it like talking to a recruiter?
Recruiters are some of the most experienced Soldiers in the Army — that's what makes them qualified to tell you about what the Army has to offer. Some have served overseas, some have seen combat — so you should feel free to ask them about how the Army has helped them meet their goals. Better yet, ask them how the Army can help you reach yours.

NERVOUS AND EXCITED AT THE SAME TIME

I contacted Sergeant Whaley and he told me to come in so he could talk with me, and we sat down and he told me my options that I had, what to look forward to, what to expect and left the choice up to me.
I didn't know how the procedure was. Sergeant Whaley told me that once I enlist and I qualify to make it to the Army he said that he would work with me and I really was unaware I didn't know that they did that. I thought that I was just going to sign the papers and just go straight off to basic.
I am a little bit anxious to go to basic, a little nervous. But I'm excited at the same time and Sergeant Whaley has been working with me twice a week and just kind of getting me prepared both physically and mentally and its worked out. So, I'm ready to go.
