Process after paperwork submission

Post by Soldier_Girl »

Hi All

I submitted my paperwork, via a colleague who happens to be a recruiter for the TA, on Wednesday 21st October.
I know this whole thing is going to take a while, so that wait is not an issue for me at all.
But, what I'd like to find out, is the process from here onwards.

In essence, what happens next .... :wink:

Can anyone break it down for me into bite sized chunks?

Cheers
SG

Hi,

Probably a medical.
Then you should be able to start doing some training nights.
The recruitment team will have to book you on to centralised recruit training, this can be a few weeks or months depending.

This will be weekend training, I think 6-7 weekends in total, then a two week course Common Military Syllabus Recruits, CMSR.

Varies depending on unit. Can take up to a year to 'get in' or if you're lucky and there are spaces a few months.

Seems the British government has done an about face regarding the TA.
So maybe you can get sorted earlier SG.
