The Philippine Marines Corps (PMC) of the Philippine Navy is currently conducting a mobile recruitment in this city, eyeing 400 recruits to join their force.
Captain Jieve Ajijul, officer-in-charge of the PMC’s mobile recruitment team, on Thursday called all those interested to grab the opportunity especially that their recruitment process was shortened to two months instead of six months up to one year.
“All examinations, medical (examinations) and oath-taking will be done here in Iloilo,” he said.
Ajijul said the screening and registration already started last August 21 and will run until September 4 while the examination is scheduled on September 5.
The recruitment process is being conducted at the John B. Lacson Foundation Maritime University in Molo district.
Ajijul said this is part of their regular recruitment program to achieve the authorized troops’ strength of the PMC.
“Probably, we will get 70 percent of our target here in Iloilo,” he said.
Ajijul said the recruitment is open to natural born Filipino, from 18 up to 25 years old and six months, not a day older during application.
As of August 23, PMC has already gathered around 70 applicants.
“They will undergo six months training and we will know where they will be deployed,” he said.
Ajijul recalled that it was in 2004 or 14 years ago since the last recruitment was conducted here. Three hundred marines were recruited during that time.
The work of the Philippine Marines are combat and amphibious operations.
