I was born and raised in Hong Kong before university, and also a Canadian citizen. I have a law degree from the UK, and now doing a kinesiology degree. I'm thinking of applying to the forces after working for a civilian job for some years. I feel so uncertain what trade to do. All I know is I want to join the military for years. I chose Kinesiology as my 2nd degree when I planned to be a physiotherapist in the forces; sadly now I won’t follow this path for various reasons. And my degree results aren't good enough to be a legal officer. And I'm an introvert. Especially because English is not my first language, it’s harder for me to follow when people are speaking fast. And my verbal skills aren’t very good.
Which are the trades suits me the best and not so difficult to get in? I don’t want to end up in a trade turn out that I don’t like it. Trades that we have to work with not many people and have more personal time work better for me. What are your suggestions? I guess maybe ACISS, Signal Officer and Intelligence. For ACISS, I saw someone said a lot of teamwork is involved; but it’s not so difficult to get accepted. For signal officer and intelligence, do I need a specific university degree, like computer science for signal officer? At the same time, I’m also not confident with dealing with computer software. I lack confidence and didn’t speak much in biomechanics lab when working with a group of 5 people dealing with complicated computer software. Hopefully time and effort could help me with improving my confidence and skills.
