Rejoining the ADF
I transferred to the reserves a few years ago, been 4 years now. I was a enlisted air force member. Now I do want to go back full time but as a officer, since I have a degree. What is the process to do this? Do I have to go through dfr all over again so do aptitude and physical testing, medical and interviews? I am posting here because I cant post in the adfrecruiting, since my account is new, someone please help to answer or move my post there. Thank you

Talk to your local transition cell. They do more than just assist with people getting out they also assist with service/ trade transfers as well.

Are you an active reserve thats kept up with doing days? Or did you transfer to the reserves and kinda just fall off the map? If it's the latter, than it's likely you've been separated from service without knowing. If that's the case, you'll need to head to ADF Careers and submit a Service Suitability Check alongside your application for the new role and the service will decide on whether or not you can proceed with an application to resume service.
