US Marines - The Making of a Marine - The Recruiting Side (Part 1 of 2)

The steps are definitely not just a marine. There are things that is quite possible by an applicant to go through to make it to bootcamp. Once a candidate is coming to boot camp, he or she still faces challenges, a Marine. It is everything but the process in the manufacture of a Marine.

Everything begins with a recruiter. A recruiter is a Marine who has been through the school to a Marine recruiter Recruiter. In July 2006 has had the Western Region (all states west of Texas)1061 Recruiter. During the month of July, the western region of recruiting mission to the Treaty in 2398 candidates, which was, on average, to 2.26 contracts (number of candidates, which is to be won) per recruiter. 2.26 per Recruiters can not seem like much, but it requires the Navy Recruiters spend countless hours trying to get a person to potential applicants through the use of many techniques. Out of 164 calls made from a recruiter, he or she is about 1 applicant from these average164 calls (164:1). Ministry of Transport is when a person walks in to ask questions around the U.S. Marine Corps. Ministry of Transport 3:1. Area canvas is, if the agent goes out to malls, fast-food restaurants, schools, etc. .. to try to contact with people who talk about the Marine Corps. Canvas is 11:1. Home visit is, if the agent can not get a grip on an individual so he or she walks through the house record of the individual to contact. Home visit is 12:1. These are just a few methods thatAdvertisers are trying to people to join the Marine Corps. With these methods, the recruiter success only about 35% for the month of July 2006. Since fiscal year (October 1, 2005 to July 31, 2006) continued the Marine recruiters Recruiters from the western region, the three regions, 8th, 9th and 12 District, includes nearly 76,500 people, and only 14,917 under contract, with nearly 20% success rate. Recently, the Marine Corps Recruiting Region took the attitudeMy Space, the infamous site that has practically everyone's attention, hoping to reach a whole new base of individuals.

With all the stress, the one in the life of a Recruiter, the workload can build up the family. With the long hours is a lot of time spent away from family. As a recruiter miss you a lot of precious time with your kids, like a baseball games, ballet, school plays, and even birthdays. For advertisers, it is very depressing, but for the children, it can bedevastating! They start to think the parent that's on recruiting duty doesn't want to be around them or that they don't love them anymore. Very depressing!

At this point, the recruiter's marriage is on thin ice. Usually the wife of a recruiter is tired of the time that is spent away from the family. She is the one who has to listen to the children cries over their father; it can take a toll on a mother who is now left to raise the children alone. When the recruiter finally comes home in the late evening, he is very tired, the kids are asleep and the wife wants to argue. This leads to additional stress on the marriage. With all of the married recruiters in the western region, more than half of them ended in divorce. "In 2004, divorced 2235 Marine recruiters, according to the Defense Manpower Data Center. This brought the divorce rate in the Marine Corps up to about 65 percent, 20 percent more than the average rate in the U.S., according to the DMDC (LCpl R. Drew ,2005).

First, an applicant in the office can be a headache for a recruitment agency. You have children, degraded and completely disrespectful recruiters. Not to mention, the parents of the children are not always an easy sell. They slam doors in the recruiter face, call them murderers, baby killers, and their views on hatred of them. In addition, the fact is that it is a war only hiders the situation. Recruiters are also with racism, depending on where they are stationed, and the color have to do tooSkin. Because faced with these things, you can take to name but a few of a toll on everyone. I can only imagine trying to sell the Marine Corps, under these conditions. Not to mention, they have to go home and struggling with a marriage.

When they finally get a potential applicant, the office, the recruiter needs to start his resale of the Marine Corps. This will be by to find out what did the individual needs of life. Find out whether tangible or intangible goals want to go to college,or just want away from home. Once the advertisers find out what are the potential applicants' needs, he or she is the sales pitch gears to these needs. That try to make it easier to follow the law of the Marine Corps does.

A recruiter can spend countless hours trying to convince a person to join the Marine Corps. Most would say: "Remember that individual and focus on someone else." But for a recruiter, your career depends on it their mission to make every month. The recruitment requirement, you canbe a hero, at 15 months, but once they have a bad month, they go from Hero to Zero. In turn, this leads some recruiters go far beyond the gray area, such as creating false high school diplomas to tell applicants about previous injuries, which would begin to disqualify them, or try to win autistic children are , to name a few. One of the most extreme stories that I heard was from the army. The applicant had Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and just could not keepanything. Somehow this child went to Army boot camp. When he came to boot camp, he had to retake the ASVAB. Needless to say, failed because of this incredible setting. Come to find out, in order, had his Recruiter someone to test for it before going to Boot Camp. If the applicant already been found qualified, he or she must take the ASVAB test. The ASVAB is the military vocational aptitude battery has developed a series of tests by the Department of Defense. "The ASVAB was originally designed toPredict future academic and professional success in military occupations. Since its inception in 1968, the ASVAB the subject of extensive research. Numerous studies have shown, validating the ASVAB assess academic ability and predicts success in a variety of occupations "(Career Exploration, 2004).

If the applicant is the ASVAB, he or she thinks of certain tasks, depending on how well they relate to the test. If the applicant did not complain about theASVAB, they have to wait 30 days before they are again. And if they do not for a second time, they must wait 6 months before it repeated a third time. The Marine Corps has to offer a ton of jobs. They alone can be a high level of intelligence task, a simple to cook. Some people are not sure what they want to do, so we can ultimately decide the Marine Corps, which is something I would not recommend it.

Applicants must now pass a physical and go through a thorough backgroundInvestigation. The purpose of the DOD medical standards to ensure that medically trained personnel, are accepted into the armed forces of the United States:

(1) free from contagious diseases likely to endanger the health of other employees.

(2) free of disease or physical defects that would require too much time lost from the tax for the necessary treatment or hospitalization, or would probably result in separation from the Army for medical unfitness.

(3) MedicalLocation satisfactory completion of required training.

(4) Medical adapt to the military environment without the necessity of geographical area limitations.

(5) Medically capable of performing duties without aggravation of existing physical defects or diseases.

During the background check can be verified the following: driving record, social security number, credit record, criminal record, education, court records, workers' compensation, bankruptcy filings andCharacter references. You can also talk to neighbors and former employers about them, and check to see into the medical records, property, drug testing and results, if they are on a sex offenders list.

If all conditions are met, the applicant is placed in the Delayed Entry Program, which means they are just waiting to go to boot camp for various reasons, as they finish high school or wait to do out of the probationary period for a little push . While in the DelayedEntry Program, which began many candidates to have second thoughts. You wonder if a Marine was the right choice. Many tend to her friends call her stupid for wanting the military, especially since it participate in a war. And with all the pressures in the life of a teenager, they are frightened and no longer want to have a navy. When this happens, it will be one of the biggest problems and stresses for a recruitment agency. Now, a recruiter will have to find a way to keep the applicantmotivated, not the easiest thing to do. At this point you have recruiters go back into the depths of that gray area. The day before the applicant goes to Boot Camp is usually spent with your loved ones. The plaintiffs spent much time parting from family and friends. In the evening, he or she is picked up by their recruiter and taken to a hotel for the evening for the final process. The morning is spent having breakfast with other candidates and get their final paperwork and plane tickets.In the afternoon, the applicant makes it to the airport to board a plane, it will be to Marine Corps Recruit Depot (MCRD), San Diego, California, which begins with the proper transformation.
