Original release notes

SHINE Interview — a live voice mock of the RAF filter interview
• The suitability interview that comes before OASC — now you can practise it out loud. "Officer 1" takes you through a real-time spoken interview, one subject at a time — your background, motivation and the qualities you show — drawing out concrete examples
• A full breakdown every time: a self-presentation score, your strengths, what to sharpen, subject-by-subject notes, and how ready you are for OASC
• Study it free first, and pick which interview to prep in the new SHINE / OASC hub
• Mic check, pause any time, and auto-resume if you lose connection

PJFT Ready — tailored fitness plans (free)
• Verified RAF & Royal Navy PJFT standards for your age, sex and branch
• A plan that adapts to your fitness, your test date and the days you can train
• Track runs live by GPS or on the treadmill; Royal Navy bleep-test and strength trainers included

• New question types, no repeats, and difficulty that ramps up.
