The Int boys are responsible for preparing briefings for the CO and the like, so it's normally fairly high profile stuff. If you're interested in the subject matter you can excel.
Most of it you can probably guess - it's about receiving (as opposed to collecting !) stuff from higher up and producing briefings for aircrew and senior officers. Take Bagram, for example, you'll be the bloke to get the nod that we're going there and you'll have to dig out everything you can on the place, from climate to runway strengths.
As a whole it's a bit like watching CNN (where a lot of material originates !) but you'll be the bloke that has to develop a little fo your own commentary and assessment.
It's not James Bond meeting with Agent XXX in Warsaw !
If I was still enthusiastic enough, I'd probably opt for IntO on my application form - much closer to the sharp end than a blunty adminners discussing budgets, parades and leave policy
