1. Describe any work you've done with, or for, civic or charitable groups.
2. Tell me about a situation in which you helped someone handle a stressful or frustrating situation.
3. Tell me about some area in which you worked the hardest and succeeded in doing well. To what do you attribute this success?
4. Give me an example of when you had too much to do and not enough time to do all of the tasks completely. How did you resolve the conflicts in your schedule? How did you establish priorities for your efforts?
5. If you could start your education over again, what would you change or do differently?
6. Describe a frustrating experience you faced and how you handled it.
7. If you have had a job, what about it do you like the most? What do you like the least about your job? How would your supervisor and co-workers describe you? Who is your supervisor? Please include your supervisor’s phone number.
8. In what extracurricular activities did you participate in high school?
What achievements did you obtain from these activities? (The resume I asked for will cover most of this one but elaborate all you want.)
9. Why do you want to be an Air Force officer?
10. Is there anything about the Academy you think you may not like? What about it will you like?
11. Any questions you have for me about the Air Force, the US Air Force Academy, any concerns?
I have an awful memory for remembering experiences that I should really keep in the front of my mind, and some of the specific questions above I cannot think of any answers to! So what should I do if I find myself in that situation in the interview?
...
Also, would it be a bad idea to recall an experience from a different academy's summer program?
First, thanks for your desire to serve and kudos on your dedication thus far.
Interviews can be nerve wracking... especially for young men and women that have not been through a lot of them. So remember to relax. The ALO is not there to "grill you". In fact I suspect they volunteer for the role for one reason; they want to help exceptional young people like yourself succeed at the academy. Try to remember that and you might be surprised by how much more you can remember/share about yourself.
As for sharing experiences at other summer programs... I have to think that would be a huge positive, not negative. The SAs are far more similar than they are different. And the inter-service rivalry stuff aside, there is tremendous respect between them (though they might not admit that! ) So share away. And if you are concerned, try bringing the story back to AFA at the end with a question/statement like "and I really hope that's the same at AFA because that's where I see myself" kinda thing.
Finally... ask questions. Nothing shows your true interest more than having questions to ask. Try to ask questions that you can't easily find answers to yourself. Think about it like this, your questions are the one part of the entire interview that you have control over, right? So use that opportunity to show your interest and formulate a few good questions beforehand. I have conducted scores of interviews of the years (nothing to do with SAs), and I can tell you nothing puts doubt in an interviewers mind faster than someone who is either too shy, or too disinterested to ask good questions.
Hope this helps and Good luck!
