Thinking of joining the Navy
Posted: Thu 15 Oct, 2009 1:17 am
Hi, I am considering applying for the Royal Navy and would like to go for the submarine service, but I am doing all my homework on various positions and roles that I might be able to fulfill.
I am 24 and I graduated from University in May last year with a 2.1 Honors Degree in Computer Network Management & Design. And in the time since graduating things have just seemed rather underwhelming and dealing with some of the same problems day in day out or some company Director coming to you and asking you the most stupidest questions ever is potentially the straw to break the camel's back.
The only thing that would concern me or potentially stop me from applying is my eyesight. I wear glasses and as I said this is the one thing that concerns me or may limit my options.
Can anyone offer any advice regarding my eyesight concerns? As I have heard of people failing in their applications to join due to poor eyesight. Now, i'm not blind without my glasses, I can see, though things are naturally a little blurry and I defo need my glasses for long distance viewing.
Could this scuttle my chances at all??
Cheers guys
