Direct speech: “The indicators of recruitment in the Defense Forces are increasing from month to month. On average, 6.5 thousand volunteers are recruited monthly across the country. It is people who are the basis of the Defense Forces, and the Center provides an opportunity to join their ranks. Our recruiters are ready to provide advice and help everyone find their place in the army”.
Details: Bezhevets also noted that more than 10,000 vacancies in the Defense Forces are open in Ukraine, including the positions of cooks, repairmen, lawyers, UAV operators and medics. You can be recruited to any units: the Armed Forces, the National Guard, the SBU, and the State Border Service.
According to him, more than 17,000 citizens across Ukraine have already applied to the network of recruiting centers. All of them received expert advice from specially trained civilian recruiters.
“Subpoenas will not be distributed in and around the recruiting center – this is expressly prohibited by regulatory documents,” the Ministry of Defense emphasized.
