From my experience it will depend on how busy the medical bods are - I waited two weeks from recieving my medical forms, to having them cleared.

The AFCO contacted me to advise that my forms were clear and to arrange an interview.

You can expect to attend at least one interview before you are put forward for selection. Generally speaking, most people will be interviewed by their recruiter and a senior recruiter before being put forward for ADSC.

Hope that's helpful.

To all you that had to wait for your med docs at the doctors to just be filled in...

Is it acceptable to keep phoning the doctors up to ask them if they had been done yet?

and does it look bad on an application if it takes weeks to get the med docs back to the afco?

cheers

Im in the same boat as you, must have been waiting about 4-5 weeks now since I sent off my medical and I still aint heard nothing. Gonna call later as just sick and tired of cruddy call centre work to pay bills.

**lemonkettaz** · 18-08-2009, 10:00

Have you sent them off properly? Or are they still sat on your doctors desk?

**Sheffield87** · 18-08-2009, 13:02

Two weeks today!! Can't wait!!
:D :D :D

I phoned every day for two weeks. Got them back - he'd missed a section. Took them back same day and got them back two days later. Now en-route to the AFCO.

I think the recepitionists hate me now; tough shit

. Obviously had an effect due to the quicker turnaround second time

I was given two envelopes one of which was sealed and went inside the other which was sent back to my careers office. I spoke to my recruiting officer and he sent it off ok but they lost my optitions report which I had to send again. Now they are on annual leave and still feel like a mushroom.

The doctor that is dealing with my form only comes in after 3, so I have to wait til 3ish to phone them, but by this time I dont have time to go and get it to take back to the afco, so I'm waiting all day really to see if they done it.

It's that time of the day, so i'll give them a call

My docter was a pain in the arrse as i booked the appiontment and he spent 10mins complaining it will take him ages to fill out. I told him he could have done it in the time he spent b*tching about it. Then it took me a week of phone calls for the admin staff to release it because they wanted to make sure they would get paid for doing it.

I just phoned up again, she said the doctor had just come in and the form might be in his car, I have to phone back up about 6 to see what the chat is...

might be in his car? is that his new office
