PNP with experience applying to Air Force in need of information

[PNP4KIDZ, BSN, RN]

I have been a nurse for 17 years with full and part-time experience including NICU, Newborn Nursery, Peds Inpatient, Lactation Consulting, and Urgent Care. I have had my CPNP for 3 years and have been working full-time in an ER. I have always respected the military and would love to be part of an organization that demands excellence, encourages leadership, and rewards superior work. My husband, family and I really want to go overseas. I realize that the military's needs come first. I am 42 years old and have my first interview with a healthcare recruiter very soon. I have looked for information regarding the process, etc., but very little is available, other than the information needed from the candidate. I have provided nearly all of the needed necessary items, as well as the items requested due to me being over 40. I am in top physical shape, and am planning to get my DNP very soon which the recruiter mentioned on the phone. He mentioned some overseas bases, as well as stateside bases that were needing PNP's. He also mentioned the commissioning in early summer, and COT training in mid-late summer. I also realize that all of the verifications that need to take place could take a lot of time. I would really appreciate any information related to length of process, interview with nursing, waiver for age, and rank considerations. Again, I have been an RN for 17 years and a PNP for over 3 years with my MSN. I think I would make a wonderful provider for the Air Force and am hoping they move forward with me and that the process will allow me to go to COT training this summer. Thank you for any information.
