as far as i know to join legion you will need to pass some other tests like psyhological test.. and ,em,some conversations with enior officers,probably on your native language (Dont be surprised)... As far as i know recruitment will take about 1 week, and you will get pay for that week. At least that was told to me by some guys i worked with and which where from legion. My personal opinion would be that most important thing you mut have is EXCELLENT MENTAL health... |

second that!!
You will need to pass a few interviews with the gestapo(don't worry its just a surname) and some recruitement officers. There are a few psychological tests to pas ,same as inteligence tests. Check out the site at Legion Etrangere.fr (i think i told you already in my mail) |

its 7 laps round a 400mtr track it is quite easy actually
selection starts in aubange with ur i.q/ psycholocial test followed by that is ur medical, then u do the run then u go to the gestapo finally for ur recruitement interviews. while they mix in alot of cleanin the camp to keep ur moral up ive u have no problems selection should last no more than 2/3 weeks but if u fail anything ur gone and are not allowed to retry for a minimum of 6 months. |

Uhm, bear in mind that these tests/interviews/procedures take place in France and travel won't be refunded; if you haven't done so yet I'd seriously consider the price tag attached to trying to join up (not to say that it wouldn't be worth it!).
