    Question Interview At ADSC

    Hello People !, At The Interview At ADSC Do I Need To Know Alot About My Second And Third Job Choice?
    Or Don't I Need To Know At All ?

    I've Been On Pre-Selection And I Never Got Asked About 2nd Or 3rd Job Choice.

    No. The interview is basically telling you how you've done in your selection and if youre going to be put forward for your chosen job. However, I'd say learn the basics because they may not think you're suitable for your first choice and tell you you're doing your second and as such may ask a couple of basic questions.

    As resmi said. They may tell you you havent got the grade for first job choice then swing the converation around to your others. at this point you don't want to freeze up ..so for the sake of 30mins to an hour i would learn the basics about he job. (job role, current ops, training location...)

    best of luck..any questions please see blog or hit me up on here...
    Will be blogging from the AFCO for those thinking about the army or have any questions I might be able to answer... only doing as was looking for one and couldnt find one.. link below...

    Not as far as I am aware. I'm going on the 11th October, and my understanding is that the only tests outside fitness are the grenade test, icebreaker, if you want to class that and the TST, which I believe only applies to certain jobs, i.e techies, Int. Corps etc.
    With regards to the TST, there is a practice test on the army website and that should tell you what you need to learn, brush up on GCSE maths and physics and you should be fine.

    Only brush up on maths, its pretty much a GCSE multiple choice exam. Pretty straight forward and reletively easy, I didn't think I was doing it as at the last minute I changed my last job choice from the engineers to infantry. Did no revision or anything and still passed comfortably. But I woulda been the fool if it didn't come out that way!
    So do some revision!

    good luck on your ADSC. just focus on your phys (not physics! physical exercise) and all we be good. in your iceberaker, just go for it..by then you know most people on the selection so its a lot more comfortable than you would think
