I must say I just had a meeting with Air Force and Marines and the Marines recruiter was amazing! The way he explained everything to me step by steps! He talked about jobs he talked and covered it all! Versus airman was just there for 30 min and done
I get as a recruiter. It’s beneficial for you to tell people not to be job locked, especially as a marine Corps recruiter, but if you want a specific job in the military, and that specific branch can’t offer that at that moment, you either wait till they can or you find another branch or recruiter, you should never go into any military branch with an open contract or with a job picked out for you get what you want and if you can’t wait for it or find another recruiter that can get it for you. I had a buddy in osut who had one recruiter tell him he couldn’t get an option 40 contract went to a different recruiter in his area and got the option for contract no problem this guy says it best recruiters are salesman for the DOD. They’re gonna sell you on whatever they can and like this guy said in previous videos, they are not your friend. They are there to get you to join their specific branch and to sell you on their specific branch.
As a recruiter I have a question! What if you had a medical marijuana card? That you no longer use and surrendered back to state? And also haven’t used marijuana in 7+ months? Thanks!
I’m about to turn 26 and planning to visit a recruiter for a 18x or option 40 if my GT score isn’t strong enough to become a beret. I just wanted to share for my ego’s sake that I’m not planning to join because nothing else is panning out for me but just have been working in warehouses since I was 18 and actually making good money but lacking fulfillment and adventure. I also wouldn’t mind the benefits if I’m being real but mainly just wanting something more fulfilling. So I figured if I do join and don’t enjoy the military I could always take up the GI Bill for college and live the fulfilling life I’m looking for.
@@smoothtravelz1438 I agree. I’m 18 about to be 19 and have been working and doing virtual school since 16 basically and have a buisness doing over 70k this year in profit but I want fulfillment so I’m gonna join the coast guard.
I only joined the marine corps for recon and would not join the corps otherwise if I had not gotten the job so that is not always true ur dedication trumps everything else

Will a knee dislocation disqualify someone even after physical therapy and it’s fully healed? I’ve been doing some research and I’m getting mixed answers about it.
@@Frommilitarytomillionaire Yes sir! I already have a discharge from earlier this month from Physical Therapy. I’m going to call the OSS office in January. Thank you!
I’ve had ongoing questions about knee dislocations also. When mine happened, I didn’t go through physical therapy. I only went to urgent care, where they gave me a brace to stabilize my knee. After that, I stayed pretty active in school, and it’s now been two years since the injury…
My son is meeting with his recruiter on Thursday. When he was very young, he had a few medical issues a heart murmur that he grew out of, also when he was sick they said asthma gave him an inhaler but was cleared of it, was only bc he was sick after he got better it went away, I don’t remember which doctors were involved it’s been so long ago and we moved, He has since been cleared and is completely healthy. Would his current primary care doctor be able to perform a full wellness check-up and provide a clearance letter? Would that be sufficient for his medical evaluation?
I’m 17 now but Back when I was 14/15 I was bullied and diagnosed with depression. I took duloxetine for a couple months. It was a while ago and the diagnosis’s aren’t accurate anymore. Will this prevent me from joining the military when I’m 18?
@@Souplord1 if you meant ‘fluoxetine’, I took it end of 2023 for a couple months. Just to give you a heads up, Im 19 and a Marine applicant. Ive been waiting so far for 12 months off taking the medication to become a poolee and eventually enlist. This was a MEPS request to wait a year. Im supposed to hear a final decision in these next few weeks, fingers crossed. If you only took it for a few months like me, and you go to enlist when you’re 18, you’ll be fine. It’ll be more than 12 months since the last time you took it, plus for that short of time MEPS isnt really concerned, The only big issue would be if you took the meds for YEARS. Also the size of the pill matters, I was taking a 10mg pill. Best of luck!
I will be enlisting with a waiver, heads up you will probably need some DR notes saying you’re clear for basic, no concerns, along with an appointment with a psychologist to determine if you are mentally fit to serve
I have a question. So I was diagnosed with Chrons Disease, which is a disqualifying factor to join a little over a year ago. I'm 17 and want to join the Marine Corps. Since I was diagnosed, I have had no symptoms. Is there anyway to get around this and join? Thanks.
I tore a ligament in my ankle while playing soccer and had surgery 18 months ago. I’m fully recovered with no issues and can provide a doctor’s clearance if needed. Will this affect my ability to enlist?

Did you stop taking it on your own, or have a doctor say you were healthy now? Ultimately, you'll need to have MEPS review your docs

Get medical proof that it was a misdiagnosis, and doesn't effect you in any way.
Will being homeschooled affect me in joining? Or will it just make the process harder
If I have to a shoulder dislocation and surgery, do I have to let them know? If so, what is the process? And are waivers a hassle to deal with?
Depends on a lot of variables, but if you get surgery they'll know.
