Interview prep for this program▸

Ask them

▸ "How many of your past SkillBridge interns received full-time offers?" — a serious program knows the number.
▸ "Who will my day-to-day mentor be, and what does week one look like?"
▸ "The listing says 151 - 180 days — can that flex to my approved window if my command shortens it?"
▸ "Is relocation expected for a full-time offer, or can I convert where I am?"
▸ "You list 8824 — what did interns from those specialties end up doing here?"
▸ Confirm the eligibility notes above — ask exactly what they need from you and when.

Bring to the conversation

✓ Your projected start window and separation date (from your profile)
✓ Your command's approval status — even "packet drafted" signals you're serious
✓ Your civilian-translated resume bullets (generate them here)
✓ A written training-plan ask — you'll need it for your packet anyway
