Hello and thank you for taking the time to read this. I have an interview on the 12th April 2017 I'm joining as a seaman specialist I need to no knowledge about the following,
Annual leave entitlement.
The amount of pay.
My basic and professional training the length ans whereabouts.
And finally the role of a seaman specialist.

Thank you for reading.
 
Whilst it is appreciated some answers maybe given in good faith, the advice is to do the research because some of it is clearly wrong.

For those intending joining the Navy it's a bloody good idea to find out what the job entails oneself or we could be forgiven for thinking anyone undergoing a selection interview for Seaman Specialist on 12th April couldn't be bothered conducting the research himself.
 
So far I know that basic training is done at HMS Raleigh for 10 weeks then professional training is done at HMS Collingwood I don't know how long for yet. I know that the role for a seaman spec is to drive the ship, communicate, drive RHIBS in all weather, guard the ship, take watch, and man small guns, I also know that you are signing up for 12 years If I need to know anymore information any would be taken. Please helpful comments.

That's enough for starters. You won't be expected to know (it's not NO) much more than that at interview.
 
RHIBs are not out in all weathers. They and their coxswains have limits. For example; RHIBs are shit at ice breaking.
