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.

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.

I left school with decent grades, and was a CNC Programmer before i joined the Army at 25. I could of carried on down the engineering side of things in the Army, but that isn't what I wanted to do. I wanted to join the Royal Artillery and work with the firepower that it offers. If you join the Army in a job role that you don't like or enjoy you will hate it and want to do something else. There are 200 jobs in the Army meaning there is something out there for you. You just need to apply yourself.

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!
