Do recruiters care about you?
Recruiters do not care about you! Some of them may say they care about you, but let’s be honest, they can be polite and they can be nice, but many of them don’t give a damn about you.
Are Army recruiters bad people?
Recruiters are usually the first interaction you receive when joining a branch of the Armed Services. Most recruiters are not bad, but they have quotas to meet and that pressure can lead to bending the truth or outright lying.
What is it like being a military recruiter?
Most recruiters are hard-working, honest, and trustworthy, tasked to do one of the most difficult jobs in the military. However, military recruiting is a numbers game: Recruiters’ careers are made and broken based on whether or not they can meet their monthly quotas (called “goals” in the recruiting world).
Is military recruiting a numbers game?
However, military recruiting is a numbers game: Recruiters’ careers are made and broken based on whether or not they can meet their monthly quotas (called “goals” in the recruiting world). Keep in mind (depending on the service branch) that most recruiters are non-volunteers.
What are the biggest lies told by military recruiters?
1. You can’t choose your MOS This is one of the biggest lies told by military recruiters in all branches and it’s complete B.S. You can 100\% choose your rate, MOS, or AFSC, but of course you need the ASVAB and other test scores to qualify. Don’t let them talk you into something you might regret down the road!
What happens if you back out of the military?
I’ve also heard “you’ll be blacklisted” (whatever that means) or “you won’t be able to join the military if you back out” or “you won’t be able to join this branch”. On the other hand, if you do back out before boot camp, and you do change your mind, chances are good your recruiter will be pissed.
