Imma be real with you, every country that has a military recruits from schools. Lots of countries don't even ask, they just make you go in anyway. America isn't an oddity at this.
Never even heard of one in my country. Recruiters are rarely seen outside at all.
The oddity is having a military recruiter for a specific school. All we had was a stand for the military at a fair with all studies options (context: belgium)
I'm assuming he's assigned to multiple schools, not just this one specifically.
Yes. Recruiters have a region they recruit out of. All schools, colleges, walk-ins, job fairs, and cold calls in/ from that region,
How's that odd? When you work somewhere typically you work in a specific area.
This is more or less what we had at my high school/secondary school in New Jersey
Hahaha no they don't. There's only a select few countries with mandatory service too.
I know that my country has a military and doesn't recruit from schools. You actually have to put in a lot of effort to get selected. (Although this might be because we are the most populous country in the world.)
