Recruit selection Center
If you are talking about the British Army, which I presume... head to http://www.army.mod.uk , and click on the link that says NowAsk;)
It's an interactive chatroom where you can speak to a recruitment officer from the British Army, he can tell you what you want to know. Remember to go there during reasonable hours, cause I don't think it is open at 8pm ...

Can somebody help me out here. How does this whole recruitment thing work. I am a South African, but will be applying for the Army, as am part of the commonwealth etc. Now what happens when you see they guy at the recruitment office. Does he tell you when to report back for a medical, fitness and mental test or what???
Well first Fill out the appropriate forms and then i did the BARB test(British Army Recruit Battery). This was seven sections tested to see your aptitude ability. These were = reasoning,letter checking,number distance, odd one out,symbol rotation,literacy and numeracy. These might not be the same for your area. Now depending on this score depends on what u can do in the army. Tech trades require more maths ,intelligence requires more literacy so on. After this u get a ACI(army career interview) and they ask questions about ur back ground,school,interests,achievements ...
NExt they set u A date to go the RSC (Recruit Selection center) where u spend up to 2 days doing tests physical or mentally. U are interviewed by a ACIO (Army Career Interview Officer) or NCO of high rank and then u will be given notice by Mail and have 15days to deceide whether u want to proceed.
I know this might be different from other people's experience but i am ready to go the RSC on tuesday.

If u know what u want to do then it's easier because they can tell u if u have passed the BARB test for that trade. If u have a technical trade u will be promoted quicker and receive more pay than rifle men.
After that ACI ( careers interview by NCO or officer)
They set u a date for RSC
If u pass the RSC then u can see if they have space for u in that trade if so u can join straight away.
IF u want to do Signals, RMEE, Royal Engineers u must pass another maths test at the RSC and the minimum score is 16.
