rnr

I recently joined the unit and have a of couple general questions. Is there anyone else that is or has trained there? There’s a drill night tomorrow (I think) and don’t want to look like a complete lemon and make a good impression.

Good Evening All, Long time lurker first time poster. After what felt like a recruitment eternity (although actually quite quickly by all accounts - 9 months even with a medical appeal/ PMU!). I recently attested into the RNR as a general entry rating with all parts of the joining process...

Hi, I'm keen to join the RNR and have waited a long time for 'the right time'. I attended a recent live event with my other half and loved it, at the night we gave our details if interested in joining and now I'm wondering how long it usually takes for the RNR to get in contact and start the...

*Observe opsec & persec* If there are OC's looking to do AOP 2018, please feel free to get in touch for a chat. I know there is the pre-AOP weekend but it is always good to start getting to know people asap. Dates have been posted to YOTOs, looks like TAO time to me.

I am currently in the application process to be an Aircrew Officer. I have my FATS very soon and if all goes to plan my AIB after that. However, I was informed by my ACLO that the selection board for Aircrew is at the start of Febuary for the May intake. As I will most likely be trying for...

Hello, I have looked through the RNR recruitment website in the last few weeks and found that General Entry Officer might be my route into being a reservist with Naval Intelligence. I tried asking questions about Naval Intelligence on the online chat function the recruitment website has, but...

Firstly, let me apologise for starting yet another thread. I think (hope) this will be the last one prior to my upcoming sift interview. In addition to the overall training pipeline (For those of you looking for this, @CmdKeen helpfully gave a detailed account of the current training pipeline...

Another post which has originated from my research in preparation for my SIFT Interview. Am I correct in saying that there is no formal return of service for the RNR? More specifically, RNR Officers? I have spent ages scouring google and having read BR3(1) Chapter 53 which deals with Return of...

Hi everyone. I'm currently preparing for my SIFT interview (although, it appears to be called a Career Discussion now). Can anyone assist with a detailed chronology of the training pipeline (Post AIB) for an RNR Young Officer? I am aware there have been changes over the years. Having spent...

Hello again all, Having passed the PJFT by the skin of the teeth (due to stupidly pulling my calf training for it :confused:) I was just wondering if anyone had advice on, or experience with, what I should buff up on before my SIFT interview? (And additionally, anything that would be good for...

Hello. I'm currently considering a career as a medical officer in the navy, and I'm exploring options for what to do during uni. I'm trying to choose between the RNR, RMR, and (if I get the offer from a university that has one) a URNU. I'm interested in joining as a medical officer, and...

Hello all, The thing that killed the cat is bugging me again so I thought I'd post about it here. While it'll be a while for me (hoping all goes to plan), I was just curious as to what happens to RNR officers once they've completed the initial training element? Only been told very vaguely and...

After a long medical process I was referred to the senior medical officer for a bout of hair pulling when I was a teenager and some weeks later pronounced PMU for 'a prolonged anxiety related episode during [my] mid teens'. I am planning to appeal it, on the grounds that I believe the hair...

Hi all, I've now thankfully passed my RT and IOCI (and eye test) and am waiting on an apparently very long list for a medical. I was informed about early attestation and as such am booked in for the attestation next week and was just wondering what to expected and how to prepare. Also I put...

Hi all this might be a long one, After some help on another thread I have cemented my desire to become an RNR officer (never any real doubt just some concerns about travel expenses) while studying at university with the hopes of going full time when I graduate. I was just wondering if anyone...

Hi all, Long time reader first time poster. Sorry it might be a long one. My conundrum is as follows: I'm at university in Leicester and am planning to join the RNR as an officer while there. However there are no RNR units nearby. The closest are at Nottingham (HMS Sherwood) and Birmingham...

Hello All, long time reader and first time poster here. I'm a current URNU student and I'm applying for HERMES 2016 as I'd like a little break from institutions before going regulars in a few years time, I'm searching online for different RNR officer roles but I don't seem able to find much...

I'm 23 and I've been training and planning to join the Royal Navy but this year I've been having some pains in my joints and it got so bad I went to the hospital and 3 doctors all said they are sure it's arthritis but just waiting to see the Rhumatologist to get the final verdict. Most of the...

Im looking at all my opinions and one of them is the Royal Navy Reserve and from looking into the joining process and I was wondering if the RNR do the PRNC like the RN regulars. Also if anyone wants to list a full joining process and everything it intails that would be appreciated but not...
