I mean this in two different ways, the first is your mindset and the way you talk to yourself. If you wake up everyday with belief you can do anything, you absolutely can. The way you think is the strongest motivation you can give yourself. If a task is hard and you are struggling tell yourself you can and you will. Secondly is your physical strength, the British Army does have a fitness standard we expect candidates to achieve however they are not impossible for anyone. Again, put your mind to it and you can achieve it!

What do you like about your job and the company?
The main reason I love being a Combat Medic is the opportunities that are open to me. As we are needed in most situations, the experiences that are available to us are endless. It is not a normal 9-5 job, every single day is different and exciting. Being a combat medic is also an extremely rewarding job role where you will get a lot of satisfaction from different situations you may be involved in. You will also work with a wide variety of people from across the world, which is a great way to build confidence and learn more about different cultures.
Greatest achievements
As a Combat Medical Technician I was tasked to work alongside the NHS to provide support in hospitals across the UK. This was a moment in my career I was most proud of because I gained a lot of experience and knowledge from this task. It was a very rewarding job as the feedback from patients and staff were always positive about the work we were doing. It was also very interesting to work alongside the fantastic nurses and doctors we have working for the NHS.

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.
