This thread is primarily intended as an opportunity to voice your opinions, good and bad about RMR selection and training, but also to provide an insight into the ups and downs of life as an RMR trained rank in trying to maintain the balance of commitment, home life and civilian employment and/or further education.
To start the ball rolling, try to keep it generic rather than aimed at your particular unit. A few starter queries, but anything goes:
1. What difficulties and delays did you encounter during selection and how long did it take to complete? How could it be better streamlined?
2. How did you find the start of RMR Recruit Training and was it what you anticipated? If not, why not? Would you prefer, and would you be better able to complete it the same as regular service recruits, in longer blocks or find it more manageable as it is?
3. Would it be easier/more flexible if there was more than one troop per year?
4. Did RMR recruit training adversely affect your civilian job, university degree, home life etc?
Over to you...
