After being made redundant a while ago. I have been to a few interviews 2 of which I had to mention that I was in the TA due to the nature of the job I was applying for as my army background and experience puts me in good stead for the positions. There main concern expressed that was I likely to be called up (this question was never asked a few years ago when I last went job hunting due to the TA never being called up) I answered yes its possible. Strait away they each looked at each other and frowned. The first company came back to me today and said I was overqualified for the position... the second has yet to respond. My Question is would you tell them or mention it after they gave you the position... I know its not a legal requirement to tell them but why as volunteers should we have to lie or be selective about what we say.
