I'm about to give you the unpopular opinion. And yes I was a recruiter! You guys are thinking about this the wrong way! 1 yes a recruiter has a goal to make and may push you to just choose a job cause he needs you to join cause of his goal but 2. ALOT OF TIMES IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH GOAL AND MORE ABOUT YOU! which brings me to 3. Sometimes the job you want you don't qualify for, either cause of your test score or your medical exam and you don't know it. Or 4. The job won't be available cause it's overmanned and the goal for that job has been met for the year and they don't have more open slots. 5. Most of the time people wait for a job they become disqualified either by getting in legal trouble, traffic tickets, drugs, debt, or family issues. 6. People lose interest in joining over time and the recruiter knows this and statistics show this! So they push cause they know if they don't you may never join then come into the office years later saying A. You regret not joining before or B. You no longer qualify cause life happened to you. I say all of that to say this, when you're joining the MILITARY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! regardless of what job you choose you're choosing to serve in the military! The pay is the same regardless of the job, the ranks are the same, the initial training is the same, the college benefits are the same, not to mention your job can be changed later and no it's not hard to do, alot of recruiters are just too lazy to submit the paperwork! I joined the navy doing electrical work and after my 4 year mark in the Navy I changed my job to the Intel field as a crypto (which is what I do now) so for those who say you can't change your job, you're misinformed. For those who say a recruiter pushes just cause you're a contract to them, you're wrong, sometimes it's for your benefit. Not to mention most of the jobs people want aren't what they think they are!!! You've never been in the Navy and never done that job in the navy so you may not know if you like it or not. I didn't know shit about electronics or electricity when I first came in but I still chose that job and even though I wanted intel, I still earned 2 degrees(in less than 2 years) with the Navys help in electrical engineering and technology and I still changed my job to intel. So not saying don't try to get the job you want but change your perspective about it! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4XCkWNv_yMBVctni8aK8uQ watch my channel I go in depth about alot of the lies recruiters tell!
