if the interview goes well then they may offer you a place. for certain trades you have to a further specialist interview but i'm not sure if steward is one of those trades, oh and plenty of waiting in between each stage is pretty standard. your afco will tell you if there is a specialist interview ...

if its anything like what i've done for pti trade you should now be waiting for your interview at your afco when places for your chosen trade come up.

i was same as you at the stage your at, i didn't have a clue what was coming next

TJD, firstly thanks for the help you've given me with your posts.

Secondly, i haven't had my debrief yet and am still waiting to receive it. Do you know of any people or examples of times when this sort of thing has happened and an applicant has still been accepted for service?. As i mentioned in ...

ss i think the view you take on moving on is a good one but i really really want to get in the raf. I'm going to persevere and see if there are any other options i can take on a route in or see if any decisions can be changed on the raf recruitment side.

I think a similar thing has just happened to me mate.

I sat my interview for pti 2 weeks ago and on christmas eve received a letter telling me that i have been unsuccessful. Now in my opinion i feel that i played a blinder in the interview, i felt confident, i was articulate, personable, basically ...

cheers MG, help's alot!.

In your post you mention alcohol affecting your sample. Do you know if any health supplemments such as protein shakes have a detrimental effect on any sample that is taken in the medical?.

Protein shake is the only supplement i use to aid my gym work but i don't want it to ...

Hi all

I've got my interview and medical coming up on the 15th dec for PTI.

I know that in the interview i am gonna be quizzed about myself and on my knowledge of the RAF, it's history and also the PTI trade.

Does anyone know of any other areas that i should be brushing up on in preperation for ...

2006!, what trade are you going for?.

Using time wisely sounds like a good idea, i'm in the same position as you as i'm trying to get my ankle strong again after suffering quite a serious sprain, it's been 4 months now and it's still far from right.

Hey biggles, my understanding of the word competition is correct, the recent letter from my AFCO was worded in a way which made the competition for places sound a bit random thats all. I think Sharon's view on the letter sounds about right.

With this being my first time applying for the RAF i'm ...

I received a letter yesterday from my AFCO which stated that due to the RAF recently down sizing in staffing numbers, no trade will be open until April 05 very earliest. It also stated that due to the amount of applicants there will now be a COMPETITION for places for those still interested in ...

TJD - As i mentioned in a previous post, this is my first time applying to the RAF or military so im trying to get as clear a picture as i can of how and when things are going to happen. The main reason for this is because i'm currently getting over quite a bad ankle sprain which is taking forever ...

Cheers mancunian, thats some real good advice there!.

Just for the record i recently took and passed my AST with good scores so all's good to move on to the 2 day test's at Cosford. :D :D :D

The bad news is that i hear that the PTI trade won't be opening til Feb next year. Can anyone shed any ...

well i ain't fantastic at either so that can only be a good thing!.

thanks again

Cheers tjd, as i said any info i can get is much appreciated, i think preperation is gonna be key. To be honest i wasn't expecting the selection process to be so scrupulous but then again this is the first time i've applied to the raf.

Are you a PTI yourself?. Any ideas which sports they look for ...

Hi
