Yeah tell him to fuck the Royal Air Farce off and join the Army. He’d just be fucked off by every RAF lass in MPA for a soldier.
Is there shite! GCHQ laying off, Whitehall is fooked under the tories, Join the home office maybe if u want to be a spy in Manchester, London or Birmingham, other than that absolute shite!i'd go for intelligence analyst, loads of stuff around that he could do when he leaves.
That's if those in the RIC have decided to stop piping each other off for bar 'fun and games'.
Some decent jobs in the police around stuff like that I think though.
Depends what interests him I suppose.
Ate they the only people available to work for in the country like as an analyst. Doesn’t have to be intelligence, you can transfer it to loads of stuff after that.Is there shite!

Could try for embassy work around the globe, doubt he would get it with zero experience. Maybe do 12-15 yr in uniform and see who’m you meet. Sometimes it’s not what u know but who you know!

Morning,
My 18yr old went for his RAF test yesterday and did ok, in fact one mark from the various engineering options that he was really after. However he still has various options, he is seriously considering 'Survival Equipment Specialist' and 'Intelligence Analyst'. Just wondering if anyone of you have experience of this? And whether these could be useful if/when he leaves service and enters civilian life.
Other options that he can do include 'Firefighter', 'PTI', 'Personnel Support' and 'Pharmacy Technician'
Cheers
Thanks mate, I’ll pass this on. He’s actually rang them today and went for that option, just waiting for interview date now. Any pointers for the interview on what to expect?i posed your question to my son who used to be an analyst in the Army ,he also spent time in the RAF ,this is what he replied i hope it helps .
Intelligence Analyst is the only credible option (not being biased either) - the others are dreadful/useless.
Survival Equipment Specialist - arm/disarm ejector seats and test liferafts (for your entire career)
Firefighter - squirt foam and drive to the end of the runway two or three times per day (and go to the Spar for pies)
PTI - physical training instructor (low paid gateway to being a low paid civilian gym instructor)
Personnel Support - admin staff
Pharmacy Technician - admin staff in a pharmacy

As someone has already mentioned, could try and join as Airman Aircrew or Air Traffic. Its tougher to get in and hard courses to get there but could be a Sergeant within 6 months. Then got to pass your trade courses but once qualified be on a very good wage for someone that age. I'm still in and was an Instructor on the aircrew/ATC course, so any questions let me know. His BTEC will be enough to get him in

How tough would the courses be for someone who has been in 6+ years? I've often wondered how the NCA course or IOT would be like.
NCA course is supposed to be the biggest lick of them all. From what I understand IOT is a case of playing the game. Apparently, as of next year those already serving won't be required to do the first term at IOT.
Intelligence analyst, would be valuable on civvy St.Morning,

They're absolutely crying out for ATC as well.
That's a bad thing. Don't get me started.
They keep dropping the CBAT score for it don't they, so much so that I passed for it - I have no fancy for controlling though.
