What do you like about your job and the company?

Being able to help someone through the process of joining the Army, watching the progression and development through the process is rewarding, I enjoy pushing people to try things they wouldn't have normally considered and seeing they can achieve things they didn't think were possible.

Greatest achievements

I doubted myself when I first joined the reserves but it has pushed me to do courses and different roles I wouldn't have picked. It has given me a lot of experience and knowledge I wouldn't have found otherwise.

The army is more than what is seen in dramatised film and television. It’s a group of had working individuals who have learnt to be a part of the army, learnt their strengths and weakness, learnt what kind of job and job role suits them best. There is so much opportunity it is impossible to write it all here but information about the army has never been so easily accessible. The wealth of insight that can be gleaned, to help you determine the right career path in the army, is massive and can help you decide. Even if that decision is not to join the army, you won’t know until you have a look.

Throughout selection and training things will not always go your way, it is designed to be tough and challenge you to give you the tools and know how to succeed in the challenging job as a soldier. It is vitally important that when you have a tough day you have the drive and determination to get up go again and get better. Anyone can do this as long as you give yourself the right mindset.
