The marketing team work together to get real life stories out there, either on our website or through social media, so candidates can get a real feel for what being a soldier or officer is like. We also arrange many events which allow potential candidates to meet serving soldiers (virtually or F2F) and ask any question they have about a career in the Army. Its really rewarding to be in a position where we can provide everyone with the advice and tools they need to make an informed decision.
