However, when I queried this with recruitment I was told the training starts 2 days after my 25th birthday, so I missed the cut and my application form wasn't even reviewed.
I was informed they may consider raising the age limit to 27 years in 2020, so keep a look out.
I was told that they were considering increasing the age limit at the beginning of this year. Now they are saying 2020. It seems like they consider the situation in their free times as a hobby
I wouldn't expect anything. Actually, I don't expect anything. I failed at group assessment and 2 years after my failiure, I will be too old because of 10 days. But I wouldn't apply even if I could. I think that ship has sailed.
