British Army Interview
Questions & Answers

SUGGESTED ANSWER:

“I have wanted to join the Army for several years now and feel that I have now reached a part of my life where I am ready to commit to the service. Having studied the Army recruitment literature and visited the Army website, I am impressed by the professionalism and standards the service sets itself.

I would like a career that is fulfilling, challenging and rewarding and I believe that the Army would provide all of these. I enjoy keeping physically fit and active and believe that given the right training I would make a great team member. I am also very much attracted to the fact that the Army offers a wide choice of careers.

The fact that I would be improving my education and ending up with a trade is just another example of why I want to join the service. I have seriously considered the implications that joining a service such as the Army would have on both my personal life and social life and discussed these with my family. They have given me their full support and commitment in helping me to achieve my goal of joining the Army.”

SUGGESTED ANSWER

“I have discussed the issue with them in depth and also shown them all of the Army recruitment literature to try to dampen any fears that they may have.

They have seen how enthusiastic I am about wanting to join the Army and know that it will be great for me. I have also discussed the issue with my partner, and he/she is extremely supportive. They are all looking forward to hopefully seeing me at my passing out parade if I am successful and therefore, I have their full backing.”
