I have no idea how so many of you are finding this thread on British Expats, you are of course very welcome even if not Brits, but it is primarily a discussion forum for Brits living/moving abroad. So if you are from Bulgaria/Poland/Spain/Germany, why not head over to the country forums and join in the discussions there as well? I have no doubt that your knowledge of your country would be very appreciated by anybody considering moving there and you could probably help lots of other forum members that way and then be able to PM without having to resort to nonsense posts.

Thanks all.

I'm new to this forum. I'm participating in the AD7 competition. I've read some pages on this thread but there a way to many to read them all. So sorry if this question was already asked. Is there some clearance yet on the wage? Was the amount which was mentioned in the vacancy notice already weighted to the cofficcient of Poland or not?

I already got an invitation to the physical test and interview in March but was unable to attend. Now the interview is going to take place online next week. I just received the invitation. Any information out there on what to expect during that interview?

With that In mind I'm not really sure what the reserve list intails. Could they just end up calling you up randomly during the 6 months period if current candidates are failing the training ect.

I applied for both basic and intermediate.

Reading again the "Guidelines for the physical aptitude test", sent together with the invitation to Warsaw, there is no particular description on how the push ups are to be done. The exercise is to assess the strength of the candidate's arms and upper limbs; no mention to triceps push-ups there.
According to Stanx (Thank you!), the exercise is about tricep push-ups which are harder.
Any ideas from other guys on what is really expected from us?
