Don't forget Ash, if the RSigs ain't for you, you can always transfer to another corps or trade within the RSigs.

Good luck to both of you.

Cheers bud. I'm 100% sure the signals is for me.

By left do you mean left completely or transferred to another unit?

Yes mate, counting down the hours of each day, can't come quick enough, and eventually I would like to transfer to a CSE rather than a CSO both within the Signals ofcourse

Slightly jealous but I'll get there eventually!

Can't hack work any more though! Spend most of the working day on the army website, youtube, here and any other military related stuff I can find.

I've got EW as my first choice and CSE second, and CSO third.

EW sounds like a Pro job, but I don't fancy the waiting list, unless it's changed since I last got told about it

By left I mean left the Army. Civi street is too full of civilians :( Lol

Not heard about the waiting list yet :( it wasn't on my job choices so unsure how long it is.

Just shows if your persistent enough though... my medical has come back clear and I've managed to move my interview date to the 4th October!! Much better than the 22nd November.

I know I'll pass that so hopefully I'll get pre selection and selection soon after.

Run time down to flat 10. still aiming for more though just got to watch I don't strain anything pushing too much.

Yea 4th of October will fly around, and if you pass Pre-Selection (which you will with that time) ADSC is usually between 2/4 weeks afterwards, just remember the run isn't the most important thing at ADSC as it is at pre-selection, just be loud, confident and give imput when you can and you should be fine though.

I'll be in Phase 1 when you come to that stage, I'll come back to this in January and hear how your getting on :)

Cheers buddy, good luck with phase 1, keep us posted (when possible) with your progress, get stuck in and enjoy it!

All the best :D
