Okay, after a long time deliberating I have (as of this morning) decided to apply for the role of WE(sub).
When I was 16, I joined the RAF as an engineer, but after 5 years and being posted to a non-operational squadron I became disillusioned (there was no transfers available due to cuts) and so PVR'd.
I've always had an interest in the role of submariners and after losing my mum last year, I decided to look further into it, previously I always thought that I was too old at 33 and didn't really give it a second thought.
I noticed, when applying that the role I am interested in is classed as a "high priority", I assume this means that they predict that the role will become under manned in the near future(?)
I'm just really asking as to the current length of time the application process typically takes, is it shorter due to the role being high priority?
Ps fully expecting all the crab jokes incoming...
