What is an ideal communication frequency with your recruiter during the DEP?

Maintaining effective communication with your recruiter during the Delayed Entry Program (DEP) is crucial for staying informed and prepared for your upcoming enlistment. Communicating twice a month strikes an optimal balance, allowing for regular updates and discussions about any new developments, questions, or concerns that may arise as you prepare for your military service.

This level of communication ensures that you remain engaged and can address any issues promptly, helping to maintain your motivation and readiness. It also provides an opportunity for your recruiter to share important information about training schedules, enlistment changes, or requirements that may need your attention. Frequent communication ensures that both you and your recruiter are on the same page and helps avoid potential misunderstandings or missed deadlines, making it a proactive approach to your enlistment journey.
