Hello everyone. This is my first time posting on this forum, but I've read a lot of posts over the past year. I've been considering getting into the military as a pilot ever since graduating high school, and have finally decided this is the path I want to take. This is after getting my PPL in May 2008 and being faced with graduation this May. The Marines look most attractive to me right now, because I figure if I'm signing up for the next few years, I better make sure I'm trying my damndest. Well, the recruiters were on campus a couple days ago and I told them we could get together this week to talk about OCS. I realize now that this interview may be the most important one of my life, because I have to make a good impression if I'm going to get this opportunity. I've been told flat out by a couple of my employers that I don't interview well. I've got good grades (3.5/4.0), am physically fit, but I have an underage drinking ticket (when I was 19, I'm 23 now), and was treated for depression when I was 14. I'm not sure yet, but I may need a vision waiver/PRK as well. Basically, I really need to make myself look stellar this week if I'm going to get any sort of shot at this. Any advice?
