Thales, Austal, DMS. Or go to work for a large shipping company. Can even get jobs on rig tenders, but I think you'd rather be the tech who fixes the ship when it comes into port than the guy who maintains it at sea.
Cheers blokes. Been having a look over civilian options today. Also called up the ADF. Won't be eligible for officer entry as I haven't completed VCE even though I have Officer positions on my most recent aptitude test. Had thought as well I wasn't able to resit again due to having done it 3 times already but apparently I can write a forma letter of appeal to recruitment and I may be able to resit again. Guess ifI do get the chance then I'll study up this time. Did have technical roles the first 2 times I'd applied but not this most recent and I think it was just due to being out of practice :/
