Preparing for “TZAV RISHON” and the recruitment process for IDF can mean the difference between an interesting and meaningful role, that will help even your future, to a role that doesn’t use your full potential.

So if it's important for you to succeed in “TZAV RISHON”, to learn how to leave a good impression in your personal interview, to familiarize and understand the recruitment process, from the first steps at your home, to the different stations at “TZAV RISHON”, to even extra tests and activities, or take advantage of the opportunity and prepare for your recruitment test too - then you’re at the right place

BE-MAITAVI program will strengthen and improve the self confidence of the students and promises a smooth and effective entry to a meaningful service in the Israeli Defense Force. This is through the fulfillment of the student’s true potential.

I fear that I won’t get a significant role in order to provide meaningful service

I feel alone when dealing with a huge, complex system, that is the IDF

I want to join elite forces in intelligence, computers, and technical roles, but I don’t know what is required

I want to join the best combat forces in the IDF but I don’t know what I need to do to stand out

I am hesitant because of the mental fortitude expected and the new world I am going to find myself in... What are the tools and the best way to deal with these fears?

“I am hesitant of the unfamiliar acclimatization process with strict rules, a clear hierarchy and a new social structure
