Pre-training brief length?

Post by davo141 »

well just that....

how long is it?
taking the mrs. and she only has some sheets to hand in to the navy fellow.

would i be best sending her out window shopping
making her wait and trust her with the bootneck on the desk!
deny i knew how long it would be, treat her then back to hers?

or just how long i expect to be in the office really..

cheers, lads! :drinking:

Its not long you just get given your kit list, told about your contract, watch a few videos if you want and talk to any other new recruits. It should be under an hour.

Aye, I didn't even go to mine due to other obligations. Just got another letter in the post with info from the AFCO.

Mine must have been about 45 mins, because Me, jordiman and another guy had to chat to someone who was there for his PRMC brief and tell him what it was like.
We were then given all the details and he chatted about the contract and how hard it's going to be.
Then I had to have a 2nd interview because it had been 6 months since my last one.
So really your looking at about 20 mins for him to go through everything and watch a few videos.
