Defence Force Recruiting (DFR) confirmed that it will tour Western Australia’s north-west over the final week of October, reaching out to locals interested in a career in the Australian Defence Force.

To meet Defence’s capability requirements, DFR has continued to look across the country to identify Australians who can support the Australian Defence Force. Locals in the region have been invited to learn more about careers in Defence as well as the Indigenous pathways that Defence offers.
