Thought I'd post up to say hello and introduce meself. :encouragement:
I'm currently part way through my application to join 4624 Sqn and have my interview later this week. I've been reading up loads on here and on the official website, finding out more about the RAF (current ops, overseas stations, organisational structure etc etc), what to expect during training and all the sort of things that will probably be asked at my interview. I've then got my medical next week and hopefully, if it all goes to plan, I'll be with 4624 at Brize to start my training very soon.
I read a post on here by someone who had been for their interview and they listed the things they were asked, which was a great starting point. I've also found a blog - thanks to a link posted in a thread by 37isntOld on E-Goat - written by a chap doing his 15 days at Halton which has been invaluable. Link --> Basic Recruit Course blog .
Now I just need to hope I can get rid of this cold before next week's medical. Timing is un-bloody-believeable! I'm unlucky if I get one cold in about 3 years normally and this one is an absolute stinker!!! Yeah yeah, I know... MTFU etc!! :biggrin: Seriously though, does anyone know if it's likely to affect anything in my medical? Or is it just giving Capita an easy excuse to fail me in order to get a repeat fee when I'm back to rights? [cynical mode off]
Anyway, if anyone has any top tips for me that might help in my interview then I'd be very grateful to hear them.
Cheers. :adoration:
