How do you choose between officer and rating roles?

[jjake101]

How do you actually pick between if your eligible to be either an officer or a rating?

Is it a matter of whether or not you want a leadership role or is there more to it than that?

Education, leadership qualities, your own ambition?
I’m no expert in the officer world, but I reckon this is a good start.

Why not take all your certificates to the AFCO and ask them. If you are scared of going alone, ask mummy to take you.

Depends what I'm trying to get done.





More helpfully:
This is about you, as much as the service. Where do your talents lie? Administrative? Technical? What type of thicker and problem solver are you?

There maybe only two possible outputs, but there are an infinite number inputs.
