What is the dress code for the open day? My biggest fear at the moment is everybody wearing a suit there except me.


It is meant to be casual, but most guys I saw where wearing button up shirts and suit trousers/smart trousers. As I am a girl, I wore a blouse and skirt. But the odd person did arrive in jeans and a t-shirt, and that didn't appear to be a problem. Hope this helps.

I think I'll stick to smart casual and play it safe. First impressions are important!:smile:

Jake,

The standard on arriving at the college requires you to do 44pressups and 52 press-ups in 2 minutes, with a 1.5 mile run within 10m 30s. This is the male standard.

HOWEVER at selection you will not be required to do press-ups and situps, only a MSLT (bleep test) where you must achieve a level 9.4. They will stop you at 9.4.

Hope this helps,
Will



Hey will,

On the medical assessment what happens ?
Got my filter interview next Thursday, very nervous!

Got my filter interview next Thursday, very nervous!


So i passed my initial eligibility, what happens next?
Got a letter stating that I was refused on medical grounds. I ticked three boxes:
.allergy to penicillin
.currently taking medication for moderate acne
.and the box for stomach disorders (I was lactose intolerant when younger, however the problem has receded enough I now have the same amount of milk as lactose tolerant people)

Because the form wasn't very specific I am going to appeal the decision.

wish me luck as this could make or break, not only my welbeck application, but a career in any service.
How exactly does the filter interview go? As a girl, what are you expected to wear?

Wear formal clothes such as a shirt, skirt(for girls only!), tie, blazer etc...
As for the interview I was told to recap on things such as

•

Army values and their ethos

•

Current Affairs

•

Why you want to be an army officer

•

Mental Arithmetic particularly DST


From all the advice I was given, I'd suggest to be yourself and be honest because apparently they like those kind of peeps.
Hi all,
I'm applying to welbeck through the RAF and the Navy to be an aero engineer in both. Does anyone know the differences between the two roles? For the fitness assessments, will I need to do push ups and sit ups or just the 1.5m run and/or bleep test? Also, I'm considering the DESG. What is the application process for this?
I would be greatfull for any info,
Thanks
