Hi all, I’m a higher nitec graduate and I’m going to be enlisting to SAF soon. I’m really not familiar with almost anything and everything that involves the army, and that’s why I’m feeling v lost.
But first of all, I have no interest in almost anything in life, so I’m probably done studying and I have no dreams as to what I wanna do if I don’t sign on.
However, that’s where I’m lost as I don’t know what to sign on as. I’m definitely do not possess leadership skills so those units that require me to order people around is a no-no for me. I’m guessing it’s something like sergeant(?), I won’t sign on to that.
I plan to just sign on once for the money despite everyone saying how miserable i’ll be, but please leave the misery for me to handle.
I really have so many questions, and I hope some kind soul will answer them for me, I will deeply appreciate it with so much thanks.
1. Should I sign on as ADF specialist? I heard the pay is good but I want to know about the life there.
2. I know most will say signing on as officer has more benefits than ADF, but what is it like being an officer? And how much is the sign on bonus?
3. If those two options aren’t good or something, what should I sign on as? Prefer if someone can recommend something with reasonable pay & life.
4. Do I have to go for reservist after I complete my contract of signing on?
5. My friend told me to sign on to SPF as he said there are more benefits for someone simple like me. He asked me to go for the interview before I enlist, and I’m thinking of whether to do so. I also heard from him that it’s a little less tough.
6. Should I sign on to Air Force? What are the options for a reasonable pay & life?
To the kind souls that are reading and will provide some help, please note that I’m doing it more for the money but at the same time I try to avoid the toughest job. My mindset is suffer now enjoy later. 25 years old i’m out, apply bto and buy car. if cannot, pls advise!
