Mega Merged: REX Recruitment/Cadetship and Working for REX

[VHOEG]

I'm going to apply once I finish year 12 this year - can someone who's gotten through give an overview of how the selection process goes and the time frame for each stage? I've read about it in the cadetfaq.pdf and their website but it still seems a bit murky?

If I recall correctly:

1. Submit your info on rex.com and wait for a response? How long do I wait?
2. Invitation to do WOMBAT test and possible maths/physics exam. When does this occur and can I choose the date?
3. A phone interview for those who were successful in the above. How long after does this occur?
4. Face-to-face interview in Wagga - how long after the above does this occur and do you have any tips?
5. Final interview in Sydney - Same as above.
6. Hand written motivation letter - how does this work? i.e. how long is it and is there any expectations (other than the obvious)?

Cheers.
