The feeling of helping someone get into their dream job is always an amazing feeling, especially when they have been trying to join for a couple of years. With every push back this young lady had, she never gave up on her dream, but also never gave up on me as a recruiter and because of that I was able to make it happen for her. She is now serving in the RA, currently deployed and is loving her Army career.

Haribo (or morale-i-bo) will get you through everything. The only thing you can ever prep entirely for is fitness so work hard. Treat everyone how you want to be treated, you never know when you might rely on them whether it be people you go through training with or colleagues and friends you meet along the way- the Army is a small place!

When I decided to join the Army. I was a fully qualified Fabricator / Welder. I decided to join the Royal Engineers as this trade. Because I was already qualified, I was able to fast track a large majority of my trade training. With this I was not only able to get to my first unit quicker but I also got a financial bonus. In my career I have held two fabricator / welder related posts, so have had the opportunity to remain current and competent in my trade.
