      Wish I'd applied during my service. Spent 20 years as a skimmer. I think showing people around whilst they are in basic training might help recruit submariners and eliminate any concerns they may have.

      Hi Connor, there are some roles in the Submarine Service which don't require any qualifications, and some which have A-Level/college or degree requirements.
      Best thing to do if you're interested is take a look at our Role Finder: www.royalnavy.mod.uk/careers/role-finder
      If you're interested in the Submarine Service, apply the filter under 'Division' and you'll be shown all our submariner roles at a glance as well as the qualifications you need for each.
