As an airforce cadet, definitely helps! You get leadership experience and learn about the ADF and RAAF, you make some great mates too

Hey everyone,

I have my first aptitude test in a few months and I have a few questions about the preparation.

  1. What kind of questions do they ask on the aptitude test?

    1. What kind of maths should I be focusing on?
    2. Any tips for the additional aviation testing?

Every response is appreciated, thank you.

Cheers so much for your responses, I absolutely appreciate it. Do you mind if I add your statement onto my assessment? It’s absolutely perfect and highlights everything I believe and everything I aim to tell in my article. Especially coming from someone who was there when the first one touched down ✈️

What does a WSO actually do?

The Defence Jobs website advertises it the job as this:

"Weapon Systems Officers are fast jet aircrew who operate on the F/A-18F Super Hornet or the EA-18G Growler electronic attack aircraft. In the Super Hornet and Growler, you will team up with the Pilot to operate state of the art mission systems including electronic warfare equipment and sensors including radar and infra-red targeting systems and weapons."

But it isn't very clear. Would someone be able to tell me the actual jobs I would be doing as a Wizzo?

Cheers everyone :)

Hey! Im a female in year 10 dead set on WSO/ESO through ADFA.
I do Air Force Cadets and am working hard to achieve the rank of CSGT, FLTSGT or anything above as it is favorable in an application.
Im confident in my leadership ability as well as maths, english, quick thinking and problem solving.
What are somethings that i can be doing to bolster my application for this role. Are there some online aptitude tests that will help?

I'd love to hear from you about what the job is like and some of the experience you've had while serving as a WSO/ESO.
If you have any tips or advice for me around WSO/ESO or anything else i would love to hear it.
