New Member Introductions

Currently serving in the forces (Army, the proper one). Always wanted a career in the police force and when I leave the forces it's what I intend to do.

Hey, I just recently sent my application away for the CNC . Looks like the only site left is Dounreay. But I'm looking for a better life and new job, So I'll take anything at the minute.

So hopefully things will move fast and the army plays their part.

Hi guys. I'm not a copper but just singing up here because I always end up with the odd question that's best answered by actual coppers rather than randoms on the internet. I'm assuming there's also a lot of ex military here, so maybe I'll run into a few people to give me advice on that (aspiring to join RAF).

Hi, My name is Philip and I work for a market research agency called Leftfield. We are looking to speak to retired (within the last four years) senior police officers (ie. inspector, chief inspector, superintendent, chief superintendent or above) as part of a research project that we are coordinating. This would involve taking part in a 25 minute paid telephone interview. If you are interested in participating please call me on 020 7407 2546 or send an email to Philip@leftfifeld.co.uk. Please share if you know people who might fit the criteria. Kind regards Philip Tester
