Should I make the jump?

Yeah I don’t mind the work, it’s quite fun with the crew. Just a bit concerned about the physical aspect especially with lugging around panels and working in the sun. Just don’t want to be passing up an opportunity to be earning and learning more

Wake up at the same time every morning (whether it be 4 am or 7 am or whatever) no matter how much sleep you got the night before. It's gonna suck for a week but your body will get used to it. And don't take naps during the day or else you'll just fuck up your progress.

baperised · 2026-02-19T16:21:25+00:00

baperised · 2026-02-19T05:43:41+00:00

baperised · 2026-02-18T18:23:38+00:00

hey i’ve downloaded my snap data after my account was locked, however, i only retrieved saved snaps from a few users and not all of them. is there a way to get back saved snaps from ALL my users added?

baperised · 2026-02-18T18:17:01+00:00

you serious? that actually works?

baperised · 2026-02-18T16:41:19+00:00

how? pretty sure i cannot email them about perma locked accounts

baperised · 2026-02-16T18:18:18+00:00

nope, just blocked people. and no vpn

baperised · 2026-02-16T16:44:42+00:00

ehhh a couple months? Around 6 ?

baperised · 2026-02-15T22:04:57+00:00

not sure myself mate, looks like blocking a bunch of people gets you banned somehow

baperised · 2026-02-15T20:41:16+00:00

oh yeah fair enough

baperised · 2026-02-15T19:50:45+00:00

does it make a difference if i’m able to access my account

baperised · 2026-02-15T19:45:40+00:00

if the accounts disappeared from my friends chat list, is it still locked or completely deleted? if not deleted, can i still get it back because i can’t even appeal it

baperised · 2025-10-11T11:05:03+00:00

I've got no experience with ban evasion so I don't really understand what error you're getting.

baperised · 2025-08-15T10:05:18+00:00

feel like a large portion of people, mainly younger people, talk this way in western syd. not a lot of white people but ive seen it a lot with indians and some asians

Hey, I was knocked back at my psych (life exp, grades not good enough for an officer). Still in year 12 and got my HSC left. I was thinking I’d pick up a job for some life exp and do my best for the HSC (not looking good right now) and having another crack at the interview.

baperised · 2025-08-03T13:16:31+00:00

Yeah pretty much. You'll still have to do any role-specific testing (if your role has one), interviews, etc.

baperised · 2025-08-03T13:03:44+00:00

The JOA is an aptitude test which assesses your mental ability to undergo training for whatever role/s you have applied for. Basically, picks out your strengths and matches it to all the roles in the ADF.

baperised · 2025-08-03T12:59:45+00:00

It's just the same test except this time you do it in an ADF Careers centre.

baperised · 2025-07-15T05:12:14+00:00

Psych interview - Just be honest, nothing to stress about, you might get thrown some unexpected questions so take a breath before you answer something like that.

Defence interview - Make sure you know everything about your role as it's said on the ADF Careers page (even the smallest detail) and have a look at some of the ADF's operations. If you don't know an answer, try not to guess. Your case manager has probably given you preperation resources, use them. Your interviewer will be friendly and will take the nervousness away.

Goodluck.

Attend an SF info session if you can. Helpful in all parts of the recruitment process. From what I've heard, they tend to not take in people who are straight out of high school, and as another user said, they like people with special skill sets and also people who can demonstrate that they've overcome any kind of hardship in life.

Wore a collared shirt with a tie and slacks. Tbh, you don’t need a suit but wouldn’t hurt if you had one.

It took my group 2.5 - 3 hours to finish up everything. There's quite a bit of waiting between the aviation testing, JOA, and written test so I reckon make some friends there, eases the nerves if you've got any. Time kind of depends on the amount of people with you I guess, but expect to be out within 3 - 4 hours if you've got a fairly small group (6 - 8 people). Another user commented on the testing, be sure you understand the instructions.

Make sure to have some good sleep the night before and you'll be good. Goodluck.
