Get Selection Ready

Passing the Special Operations selection process is challenging, but certainly achievable. You just need to know how...

Getting 'badged' isn't chance


It's cause and effect.

It's a test of your preparedness.

Prepare well, understand the selection process, what we're testing and what we need to see from you and you'll give yourself a good chance.

  • Learn from those who have gone before you
  • Develop your physical capabilities
  • Test, adjust and hone your mindset strategies and techniques, and turn up to selection ready to execute

Simple.

Simple, but not easy.


How it works

The Job


Special Operations is an awesome gig. It is the pinnacle and as such you'll be expected to perform. Every. Single. Day. You'll be working with the best blokes, have the best equipment, train in the best facilities and get the best missions domestically and overseas.

Special Operations need the best Operators, which is why the selection process is so intense. 

Turn up to selection underdone and you'll be found out, quick. 

Be professional. Put in the time to train, do the work, develop your skillsets and ensure you're ready.

That's what is expected throughout the selection process, and that's what is expected within an elite unit.
