Hey guys,
How long did it take for you to get your pack after assessment day?
Was going to ring them and ask for an enlistment date today but got no answer from the lady i was told to ring..

Should we be calling our case managers who got us through YOU and assessment day preparations etc? or the people at your nearest recruiting head office ie. Brisbane?

any help would be greatly appreciated

Hey there, has anyone been accepted into Air Force Gap Year for next year?! Just got my letter; enlistment date is in January...woo hoo! :D
Congrats,
i'm still waiting for my assessment day, had my YOU back in july, still havent got a word about it, rang them up yesterday, they gave me the usual responce "your on the priority list for an assessment day" its what i've been hearing from them for ages,
i have a feeling that they RAAF they delay a little coz its smaller and focus on army intially, but now that u've got in, i think that theory is wrong

Thanks!! Yeah recruiting is actually useless! I applied last year, and they stuffed up my application completely!! SO had to re-apply..... Air Force is way harder to get into, then Army/ Navy. They've changed the whole application process since I applied, but it seems like they're even slower than last year! Good luck!!

I had my YOU Session a couple of weeks ago and I think it went well. RAAF is my first preference and Army (Rifleman) is my second. I'm not really expecting to get in because I know it is very competetive but I'm definitely hoping to get in lol.
