Military experience
I have no official military service experience, but I do have several experiences and skills that I believe could be relevant in a military environment. I have experience in scouting, which taught me discipline, teamwork, responsibility and being comfortable outdoors. I also have experience as a machine operator and in technical and physically demanding work, giving me technical understanding and experience working with machinery, tools and safety procedures. I am very safety-conscious and used to assessing situations before taking action. I also work out regularly to improve my strength and fitness. I have completed part of a first-aid training course, although I was unable to finish it because of COVID. On top of that, I have played a lot of Call of Duty over the years. I understand that gaming is obviously not the same as real military experience, but I believe it has helped me develop quick reactions, spatial awareness, communication, teamwork, fast decision-making and the ability to stay focused under pressure. Combined with my discipline, technical skills, physical fitness, sense of responsibility and safety awareness, I believe I have a solid foundation to develop further in a military environment.
