    Went to IMRP (Presentation) at RMR Mersey (HMS Eaglet) last night and am still buzzing from it. This was arranged through local AFCO. I would recommend that anyone who is thinking of joining RMR arrange to go on one. The staff answered any concerns/questions and told you truly what life as a RMR is like and the opportunities you can experience if you put the effort in! There were only 3 of us on the presentation so it was really personal and we were able to have a good chat with the staff and they were interested in our backgrounds as much as we were of them. We had a brief tour of the base and we were welcomed to begin a weekly phys evening to help prepare for PRMC and familiarise us with forces life.

    I have my interview a week today so preparing for that at the moment, any last minute tips? I’m doing the obvious research into history, background and structure of the corps. I’ve read the other useful threads on here but just wondering if someone has done one very recently?

    Great feedback. The presentation is a pre-requisite to progressing the application process.

    The RMR interview used to be very relaxed asking questions about who you are, what you do and getting to know you. That’s not to say you won’t be asked Corps question but don’t stress - good luck

    I had my RMR selection *text deleted* recently. As above it was very relaxed, questions about my past, school life (what I thought of teachers), what training I’ve been doing, what my family thought of me joining etc.

    I did research beforehand on corps history, 5 most recent Victoria cross winners, information on training etc however was surprised to not get asked anything about this. Maybe I got lucky! Trying to stay up to date on it all though as I’m sure it’ll come up at PRMC!

    Nice one @Griff149

    Just passed the interview :D I prepped to be asked about the history etc. but wasn’t asked them, it was mostly personal questions. However I’d rather be over prepared and I’ll keep the history fresh in my mind for PRMC.

    Will keep posting on this thread throughout the joining process and am happy to answer any questions anyone has.
