Ghislain Nfonga ⋅ Fort Worth, TX U.S. Army, Specialist ⋅ 4 years served

Hi J. From time to time the answer to most of our puzzling questions are around us. When you transitioned the service, ACAP provided you with awesome materials to prepare for interviews. If you still have them review them once again.
In addition you were able to remain on the shortlist. So keep doing what brought you there initially. Stay confident and bold.

All the best.
Ghislain.
