Hello,
First off, my situation. I'm 27, degree educated, decent employment but contract and flexible to move and may do so in the next year or so. I'm located in Shropshire.
Ive been to my local AFCO and whilst useful the info wasn't very accurate about what roles are open etc.
Im generally interested in policing and intelligence roles (I'm open to persuasion) Whilst I know they exist in the other forces the RAF has always appealed most. I was also interested in going for officer roles but have now been told they do not recruit inexperienced officers into reserves.
Now my my other problem is that being in Shropshire I'm along way from any reserve units except for Cosford which is not recruiting for policing.
Therefore my my question is, is it worth travelling for a reserve role or even possible? Is it easy to change units if you move? And generally any advice as to who to contact?
Many thanks
