[@dnahryag]

I don’t have a ship date yet but I’ll be shipping from tampa, florida too! Goodluck ❤️❤️

[@mikeekay1948]

Ayeee! Thank you and I hope you get your shipdate soon!💙🍀

[@PapodeArmas]

Is DEP how you sign up with a guaranteed job instead of going in as open general ?

[@PapodeArmas]

​@Angie Rem In the Air Force you dont get a guaranteed job when you sign up... instead you get to " pick" a few job options under General or mechanics or electronics or other categories.... so basically you go to BMT not knowing what job you will have, in the end the Air force will choose one of your picks to be your job... im still learning about it myself but theres plenty of information online about it.

[@mikeekay1948]

No, everybody goes through DEP. It’s a program where recruits wait for their ship dates

[@toptrap9610]

I get you so much my parents always tell people im joining and it gets akward sometimes🤣

[@mikeekay1948]

Lol yeah def awkward at some points but they’re just really proud of us💙

[@toptrap9610]

@@mikeekay1948 you at tech school?

[@mikeekay1948]

Yup!

[@chloeday6927]

I was open general and I got my first job choice on my job list you do in week 4 or 5 I believe. You’re gonna do great! Those 2 months are going to fly by. I shipped Nov. 19, 2018 and graduated Jan. 18, 2019. I was in the 324th squadron (GO KNIGHTS) and honestly I had the best experience ever! I had the best MTI’s on line. If you have any other questions don’t hesitate to ask 😊

[@mikeekay1948]

That’s awesome! I hope I get my first choice too. And I’m so relieved to hear that! I’m honestly been so worried about BMT. Thank you so much!💙

[@torichung8001]

did you took asvab first before being in DEP?

[@mikeekay1948]

Yup, before😊 Once I passed the ASVAB and MEPS, that’s when I swore in DEP.

[@breaunadixon8961]

[@tommyrojas9055]

Awesome !! I just started the process last month and I’m shipping April 23 I’ll probably see you at bootcamp haha

[@mikeekay1948]

Lol you probably graduated earlier than me! Took me a bit to graduate but I finally did! Are you in Tech school now?

[@harshpatel3125]

Hi. I swore in as a green card holder. Can you brief me about what all happened after filling the sf86 untill you got confirmation about security clearance?

[@mikeekay1948]

It’s been quite some time but all I remember is that there’s a lot of waiting game around that time. I went to DEP calls and just waited for THE call. Make sure you have your voicemail set up just in case you miss their call!

[@jordanconner393]

I leave April 16th, open mechanical

[@mikeekay1948]

Couple more weeks! Goodluck🍀

[@jordanconner393]

Good luck to you as well!

[@kyrasmith5854]

[@hhhhh99975]

I leave on the 16th too!! Open general

[@zshark9425]

Also shipping out in April and can relate to your situation. Been in DEP since Dec. 2017 because I tested colorblind with limited options. Were almost there!

[@mikeekay1948]

Aw I’m glad everything worked out! Just couple more weeks!🙈

[@zshark9425]

@@mikeekay1948 Yep we are about there! Btw what's your exact date and job. Mine is April 9 for Cyber Systems Operations.

[@mikeekay1948]

April 2! I’m just a week a head of you so I’ll most probably see you there! And I’m going open general so I won’t know until later on in BMT. Cool job!

[@meganmartin9235]

Yooo I leave April 30th and open general too 😂 that’s pretty cool dude congrats!

[@mikeekay1948]

Awesome! Congrats to you too! Goodluck to us😂

[@billybob5859]

Hi how long did you wait in dep to get your ship date. It’s been a 3 weeks for me and still waiting ;(

[@mikeekay1948]

I was in DEP for more or less 11 months? But that’s because I had to do a more in depth investigation since I’m not a US citizen yet. It’s definitely worth the wait!

[@laisssz.a8104]

Same height but I'm stuck to 90lbs so I need to gain weight. What's urs?

[@mikeekay1948]

Hey! When I shipped out I was 126lbs. Have you looked what’s the minimum weight for our height?

[@laisssz.a8104]

@@mikeekay1948 minimum is 97 but the recruiter probably wants a 100+ cause we'll be sweating and they don't want any broken bones😂

[@Jeremy-bh3yy]

Hi pls uuhhmm am new to this So pls can u jx list the steps that u gona go through wen joing the Air Force as a green card holder

[@mikeekay1948]

It all started by talking to a recruiter. From there, he or she will help you with what steps you have to take. The steps are pretty much the same with those who are citizens.

[@calvinlee6163]

March 19 shipping out

[@mikeekay1948]

You’re almost there! Goodluck🍀
