What do you like about your job and the company?
I love travelling the country and telling people about the AGC and my job role and how it isn't what everyone expects it to be. There are so many opportunities to do: Para Course, Commanders Course, Skill at Arms, Drill Instructor, Adventure Training Instructor courses, and a vast range of career based qualifications
Greatest achievements
Whilst being attached to 'The 2nd Battalion, The Duke of Lancaster's Regiment', I had the opportunity to do the Specialised Infantry Cadre with my Company. I was the only female to pass during that course.

It's always better to be at the bottom of a ladder you wan't to climb, than half way up one you don't. Okay... I promise I won't do anymore cheesy quotes from now on, but it really is true. I've always thought of this, as you can see from the various jobs I've had, I've always been looking for that one job that ticks every box for things you want out of a career. Don't be persuaded into doing a job you're not set on, just because it may result you getting your start date early. Or if you need a qualification for a particular job. Get that qualification! If it means you getting that career/job role that you really want, then go for it. Don't settle for second best.

Personally joining the Army was a great decision. Its given me that stable career everybody wants. The opportunities within the Army are second to none whether it be from gaining qualifications in your chosen field to travelling the world doing various activities. If you give the Army your everything the Army will give you everything. As cliche as it sounds the army really does give you friends for life. You are all equally motivate and go through the same experiences which bonds you more than anything else in life.
