First for some context: Earlier this year I applied for a Pilot Officer role in the Royal Navy; I later attended FATs as required and did not pass, this was obviously disappointing at the time but I aimed as high as I possibly could to begin with and had other options ready to pursue in the event of an FATs fail.
Following this stage I received an email stating that “After a full and detailed examination of the available information the Admiralty Interview Board is unable to approve another test.” - I took this on the chin and was told by a Liason Officer that I should consider other Officer roles and so I did. However, I have recently received a call from my local careers office which informed me that the AIB has decided not to invite me to return and so it was explained to me that I cannot pursue any Officer role; this has really baffled me because I hadn’t even reached the AIB stage yet, the only stages I had attempted were the RT, which I passed, and the FATs, which I failed. I wasn’t given an explanation for this decision - this has left me with some questions that someone on here might be able provide some help with:
Is this a usual occurrence? If not, is there usually a main reason that this happens?
Is it possible that although the FATs is an aircrew based test, due to me being unsuccessful, they have decided I cannot pursue a career as an officer regardless of trade?
Is it likely that the AIB’s decision will be indefinite?
Thanks.
