How long does it take to join the army?

i dont know how long does it take to sell your soul?

It depends. If you are going to need a waiver it may take a while.

It also depends when you select a MOS and when the next date is available.

It depends on your MOS. Everything in the Army is hurry up and wait.

This is a "how long is a piece of string question" well it does not happen overnight. The quickest I seen it done was 6 weeks and the longest well over a year. It all depends on, how good you are at your "form filling" and how quickly you get your paperwork back to the office. It also depends on how fit you are, can you do the 1.5 mile in the given time? How fit are you medically? Are you over or under weight, both these issues will have a bearing on your application.

Are you confident enough, do you give a good interview, did you get the right score on your BARB test for the job you want? Are there any vacancies left for the job you want? Were you sufficiently mature enough at selection, were you a team player on the team tasks? if not then you'll get a three month knock back!

Is your literacy and numercay at the required standard, if not then you may have to come back when it is, I had to refer at least 5 people to adult learning classes in my time. So sorry I've only given you more questions to answer but the fact is that there is no answet ot this question. On average 3-4 months.

it depends. i'm with army recruiting in phoenix, az.

do you have any law violations? medical conditions? etc... basic lasts about three weeks. if you are serious you can be good to go in about a month.

shoot me an email at jacob.noah@usarec.army.mil

i can get you in contact with some recruiters.

i walked into my careers office in november time, filled application in had a medical before christmas, interviews in january, insight course and selection in feb! I have now got my start date for basic training which is june 30th

it really all depends from applying to selection it took me 3 months, but sometimes theres complications so it could take longer.

it also depends on your job choice there will be alot more job openings for jobs such as infantry but alot less for jobs like millitary police. For infantry the wait time could be 1 - 3 months after selection but for jobs like millitary police could take 9 - 12 months after selection until basic training.

Dont do that. Be a florist, make people happy with flowers.

Probably less than two weeks.All you need to be is over 18 and have a pulse.I wouldn't go until the mess in the middle east is over. You might be a grand father by then...

My partner says it was only a couple of weeks until he started training, i hope this helps.
