The armed forces are screaming for tech people and really dont care about your interview skills. The US marines are even talking about dropping thier basic training requirements IOT get more tech people.
Yes. That said, most military recruitment requirements are requirements in the same way that "10 years of React experience" is a requirement... They ask for the world and make exceptions to get the people they want. But the bigger the exception, the more bureaucracy you should expect to wade through to make it happen.

The interview requirements may be less, but many lifestyle factor requirements are far more stringent.
Additionally, the military is unlikely to pay you favourably compared to the same job in civvy street.
Don't they have low age requirements?

Well I'm not certain what that age limit is, but their requirements sound strict. FWIW I am 34 years old.
Each is different. No harm in asking.
