Recruiters do not work for you, they have their own interests in mind. We have a few on this board who will likely chime in. My personal experience involved five recruiters until I was offered what I wanted, a shot at 11X Ranger contract. The first four thought at 130 lbs I was too skinny, the fifth I didn't give a choice. Either sign me for 11X or I'll find number 6.
This decision will effect the rest of your adult life, why are you not shopping around?

No misdemeanors or felonies. This is my second set of recruiters, as the first ones were not willing to help me get an 18x, or 11xopt40 for that matter, and started talking about all the benefits the army has to offer and I'm joining THEIR army and basically trying to make me feel like a bad American for wanting a specific job so I walked.
