When you make the decision to join the Army, you will take a test called the Armed Forces Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB). Think of it as the Army’s version of the SAT. It’s designed to help the Army understand your skills. Once you complete the test, you’ll be able to choose from a list of Military Occupational Specialties (MOS) that match your qualifications.<br></p><p>No matter which career path you choose, the experience you receive in the U.S. Army will give you a framework for success.<br><br>You will have the opportunity to train and achieve a certification in almost any career path. You will be given hands-on training, and you will be expected to carry more responsibility than you would starting out in a comparable civilian job. You will also gain leadership skills and a work ethic that can only come with a background in the military.<br></p><p><br></p><p>This is the Official WorkNOLA page of the Downtown New Orleans Army Recruiting Center.<br>Army Recruiters are tasked with not only finding men and women who are interested in the Army, but also helping them gauge whether military service is best for them.&nbsp; Recruiters also guide potential candidates through the enlistment process, making sure they have everything they need up until the moment a Soldier embarks on Basic Combat Training.<br></p><p><br>Why contact a Recruiter?</p><p>A recruiter will help you tailor your Army experience to fit your needs and goals.&nbsp; Want to take advantage of money for your education?
