Australian Defence Force to launch campaign to attract at least 350 foreigners to join the ranks

The Australian Defence Force (ADF) is set to launch a recruitment campaign aimed at attracting at least 350 foreigners to join its ranks, as reported by The Nightly. This initiative comes in response to a significant shortfall in recruitment numbers, with the ADF falling 2,400 recruits short of its target last year. The campaign will target New Zealanders, Americans, Brits, and Canadians, offering them a pathway to Australian citizenship after 90 days of service. This move is part of a broader strategy to bolster the ADF's numbers, which have been impacted by a competitive job market and a decline in interest among young Australians for military service. The recruitment drive is also influenced by the need to meet strategic defense commitments amidst rising geopolitical tensions.
