Man @@Jodywithawhy I have been trying to get into the Air Force since September. It’s been very discouraging and disheartening but I’ve been pushing through everything so far. I have my recruiter in Austin but I live in San Antonio. I just have to ask for my job I need a security clearance and I did all the paperwork but I made a bad decision when I was younger (im 25 now). It happens to do with my credit but my recruiter says I can’t be over $15k I believe. I got the thing taken care of with a settlement of $10k in December and made my first payment this January. I have to ask if this is true that I have to be under $15k? Second, I have never really had to look at my credit report so when he says $15k how do y’all calculate that so I know I’m ok to send?

@Jodywithawhy Год назад

Your credit check will be based off any outstanding debt, collections, charge offs, bankruptcy and a debt to income ratio higher than 40% (based off of your expected military pay compared to your debt). If any of these flag, you’ll be required to have a financial waiver. At that moment, you most likely won’t be qualified for any jobs that require a higher clearance unless the situation has been settled and can be proven it’s settled.

@twash972 Год назад

@@Jodywithawhy this makes more sense and those things are all contributing to the overall total of $15k. Also, what if I started off going with reserve but have since then decided I wanted to go active. I assume the same rules apply either way correct?

Good info for the newbies. I entered the AF in 1975. I scored 95 in electronics and mechanics. I had a guaranteed job (Analog Flight Simulator Specialist). However, my job choice was not available at the time so the recruiter put me in the Delayed Enlistment Program for 3 months. That way, my 8-month long tech school (Chanute) would be starting right after I graduated from basic training in Lackland. It all worked out very well. No regrets! The USAF was the right choice at the right time.

That question on how to fix it "the recruiting problem ", I'm not sure if this is being done but I would say we need to address how the military is being promoted. This generation nowadays is not motivated to fight in war so I would say appeal to us with the benefits. Start at the high school level. I wish I new about the benefits of joining when I was in high school because now I'm in a situation where I have been out of high school for 10 yrs and I want to join because of the benefits but it would be a step backwards or slowing me down in regards to propelling my life forward in my relationship, education, and career that I'm already in. Like I really regret not knowing about these benefit straight out of high school

@Achievement_Unlocked_ Год назад

Talk to your Rep and Board of Education. Recruiters would LOVE to talk to every student of EVERY school but you would be amazed at the level of resistance to which these schools go to block recruiters. It's literally up to these kids to do their research for their life

Hey Jody, great videos! I was wondering if you can make a video about prior service from another branch joining the Air Force? I am transitioning from Active Duty and was curious about the process for going into the Air Force reserves. I have heard it is very different from the process for non-priors/ priors that got out some time ago (i.e. contract lengths, skipping basic training, selecting a MOS, choosing a duty station, etc). Air Force information always seems so hard to find compared to the other branches! Thanks in advance!

@esosa9634 Год назад

Hey Jody, I'm a new Subscriber For over 2 weeks now I've been thinking of Joining the Air Force, and I've watched all you videos and others too as a part of my research. I'm not joining as a last resort as u mentioned in one of your videos of why you shouldn't join the Air Force. I'm joining to make a name for myself, not because its going to make my parent proud or anything like that but because I'm 21 and I still haven't seen myself at a place I want to be. Ever since I was a little kid (around 12) I've always being fascinated of an air craft and sometimes fantasize/dream about flying one or building one, but as time past society and the opinions of people will pin you down and my dream faded away. And so, now I'm going to school for filmmaking and Art (Illustration/painting), but I don't know where that fits in the economical status of society. The main thing I want to do is make a name for myself, but now I see my life crashing down, I don't know if I've made the right choices in my life and yes I'm 21 and I still have time to make good and bad choices. I'm dumb as a rock in Mathematics and that's why I chose Art in College, I've ordered the ASVAB Kaplan book and I don't want to fail the ASVAB. My GOAL is to get a high score and I don't know why I need you to motivate me but I do, please tell me I can do it, tell me that its not the end of the world even though it seems like it. Tell me I can make it to the air force with the right amount time of studying.

@Jodywithawhy Год назад

Aye bro. You honestly can do whatever you put your mind to. If art is important to you, and you’re already in college, that may be a good path for you. If you’re not fulfilled, than maybe the Air Force. The biggest thing is to find out what is most important to you. Who do you wanna be, what kind of legacy do you want to leave behind, what kind of impact do you want to make?? Those are the questions you should be asking, to help get to the next chapter of your life. Then choose whatever path you think will help you answer those questions the best. If it’s the Air Force, you’ll do everything you need to and make it happen. If it’s something else, same rules apply. But first, ask yourself those hard questions. That’ll be where you start. I hope that helps and good luck. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

@shempaulmboya Год назад

Hey bro, nothing is impossible the moment it becomes important to us. Dreams fade not because of the opinions n statuses but because we forget what we dreamt and why?

@Jodywithawhy Год назад

It really depends on your goals. Both paths are good, but the enlisted is more technical and hands on, while the officer side is more leadership like roles. It’s a slower process to joining however because of everything required to qualify. Enlisted you can expect 3-6 months from start to joining, while officers can expect 12-18 months. I hope this helps. Good luck.

Could these things still prevent me from getting in?

@Jodywithawhy 11 месяцев назад

It’s always possible prior medical conditions can disqualify you. It will really depend on the medical records and severity of the condition. Also if you can get a doctor to say all of those medical conditions are no longer present, that will help a ton as well. I hope that helps and good luck on the process. 🙌🏽🙌🏽

@@Jodywithawhy After 5 months of running around grabbing documents, from various doctors, taking tests, going to MEPS for the ASVAB (scored an 83 overall, 93 in Mechanical) I am still awaiting a final answer if I can join or not. The whole process has been incredibly frustrating. Whenever I obtain some piece of information that the medical staff wants, I send it to them, only to wait a couple weeks and have them tell me they need something else. It's not looking great right now, as the last I heard the CMO wanted me to take a pulmonary breathing test (which I already took and easily passed a few months ago). They wanted every piece of info about the test results and even after seeing that I passed it, they still want me to do it again, this time at the MEPS. I haven't heard from anyone in the Air Force for three weeks, because my recruiter was transferred to another base. He told me another recruiter would be contacting me soon, but that was over three weeks ago. I have tried calling the recruiting office, but nobody answers.

Hi Jody. My granddaughter took the ASVAB on March 24th, 2022. She got a 77 on AFQT. She is 17 years old. She will be 18 on August 27th, 2023. She will not talk to a recruiter until she turns 18. Her mother will not take her now because her mother does not agree with her choice. Her ASVAB score expires on March 24th, 2024. Therefore, what is the MEPS process for someone who has already taken the ASVAB. Will she be able to enlist before her AFQT expires? I don't want her to lose the benefits of this good score. Your insight is appreciated.

@Jodywithawhy Год назад

If she goes to MEPS before march she’ll be able to use that score. If she waits, she’ll have to retake the test when the time comes. I would recommend her explain to her mother how waiting can be detrimental to her job opportunities later if she were to get a lower score.

He said that he could take an email anytime saying I graduated and that would work but he just wants to wait until after MEPS. He knows that I want to ship pretty quickly so why would he go through the extra steps? If someone could clear that up I would appreciate it. Also I got a score of 90 on the PiCat. Does the system still just randomly match me to whatever jobs I put down or is there any bias to people with higher scores? Thanks!

@Jodywithawhy Год назад

It’s probably cause he already requested your MEPS date with the previous information. If he were to change it now, he would have to submit new paperwork, and probably doesn’t want to go through the hassle. That’s what I would think. I could be wrong.

So, is ADHD a disqualified situation? Or do they have a waiver for that?

@peta-gayegayle8055 Год назад

What if I have my Driving permit can’t I focus on just joining now and work on my license after I leave tech school?

@Jodywithawhy Год назад

You can go to basic with it, however you won’t qualify for any jobs which require a driving license.

@Ute876 Год назад

Can I join with a conditional green card? I heard recruitment is down, I have a degree and I’m very interested in joining. Can this be waived by any chance ?

@Jodywithawhy Год назад

It wouldn’t be waived. It would have to be the 10 year green card.

Hey Brother I’m really looking forward to join the Air Force but my Eardrums are perforated, is that going to be an issue ?

@Jodywithawhy Год назад

It may be. It will all depend on your medical records, and how the Air Force doctors determine your qualifications. The only way to truly know is to try. I hope that helps.

@riverhigurashi8058 Год назад

I've been scared to ask this but would having cataracts disqualify me from joining?

@Jodywithawhy Год назад

It will depend on the severity of the condition. The only true way to know is by going through the process. I would say it won’t be easy however. I hope that helps.

@@Jodywithawhy appreciate you taking the time to reply. Actually it gave me the push to go see my recruiter yesterday and he advised the same. We won’t know for sure until I’m seen at MEPS but I’m relieved and encouraged it wasn’t an outright no. Thank you!

As a non-citzen without a green card to join the airforce will the airforce help me speed up the process of getting my green card ?

@Jodywithawhy Год назад

Unfortunately the Air Force can’t help you with the process of obtaining a green card. They can help you get expedite citizenship if you join with a green card though.

One question Jody, I passed the asvab with a 50, I needed a 50 because I have a GED. What if I try to take it again to get a higher score but i score lower? do I keep my original score, a 50? Or do I keep the lower score and more recent score?

@Jodywithawhy Год назад

You’ll have to take the most recent asvab. Please, please , please don’t risk it. Just keep the 50, that’s a great score. “A bird in the hand, is worth two in bush.” That’s some old school game. Lol

@mannyprays1164 Год назад

@@Jodywithawhy thank you I just wanted to double check with you , my recruiter told me to keep the 50 as well. Thank you so much. I hope to be in BMT soon. I been doing a lot of push-ups and leg raises and alot of stretching. I want to be fit and ready for BMT. God bless you Jody

Sir: I have existing student loans and the Air Force Student Loan Repayment Program offered to attorneys. My primary goal is to serve my country and clear my law school student loan debt. However, I have been told that I am beyond the maximum age for enlistment and OTS. I remember your video"How My Most Disqualified Recruit EVER Got An Air Force Waiver." Any suggestions? Thank You, Victor Torres

@Jodywithawhy Год назад

You can join up to your 40th bday. If you’re older than that, the only way you’ll get an age waiver is for health profession career which require a health profession degree and experience.

17:17 and the dod wonders why they have a hard time recruiting LOL. Recruiters used to be better and the standards used to be lower. The military was for normal people. When my brother was going in 10 yrs ago, he was in the dirt and his recruiter bent over backwards to get him in. Now? Recruiters won’t look your way unless you were raised a spoon fed life with zero challenges in your upbringing.

@Achievement_Unlocked_ Год назад

So, recruiters aren't going to work til 8pm at night for shithead kids anymore. Good. It's the constant person who blames everyone else for their own lowly performance in life that never improves themselves, it's everyone else. Sounds like people need to take their life decisions more seriously and parents need to get more involved. Your military recruiter is not Jesus, he or she is not your miracle. They're a hiring manager. Be on time and be prepared for your interview. This is the military you're joining, time to put on big boy pants and be serious. You're joining the military and their standards are high.
