Marine Engineer in Hmas Creswell ACT

on 20 August 2023

I’m Training

Not enjoying the training environment. However I am keen on the opportunities that lay ahead. A naval career will expose me to more engineering opportunities than I get in the outside world.

Marine Technician in Rockingham WA

A good start.

It’s hard to state a typical day, depends on if posted to a ship or shore. A ship, you can expect long hours, extreme work load and little to no work life balance. Expect to be flogged with day to day work and somehow expected to progress your education. Ashore is the polar opposite. Bring a phone charger cause jobs are few and far between so expect to get fat and lazy.

Assist Submariner in Western Australia

Fun workplace and great people

It will be worth to join the Navy if you re not half an idiot. Good salary and learning environment. Some negative things but if you can deal with it you’re gonna be a real man

Boatswains Mate in Crib Point VIC

Good

Was very different but like every job it has its ups and downs so there will be times where it’s the best job ever then it just does a hold 360 and you could hate it so much

Electronics Technician in Sydney NSW

on 29 October 2022

Enjoyable career option if your ok with having little to no control over your life while serving.

A enjoyable career option if you are a single person. It is not a family friendly career. You will spend a lot of time away, but you will make lifelong friends and have plenty of great times in when heading ashore.
