The Yom Hame’a process begins during 11th grade, and is intended for female candidates only, who enlist on the same year. You can still volunteer for combat roles and take part in Combat Tryouts if your personal data allows it.

The summons will be sent to you by mail, SMS and of course through the personal area of this website after completing the required procedures at the recruitment office.

Why is it important to show up?

You can only participate on Yom Hame'a once and it allows you to demonstrate your personal abilities. Please note, if you do not arrive on this day, you will not be given an option to fill out a preferences questionnaire and therefore you will be placed according to the military's needs only.

What Do You Do on Your Yom Hame'a?

Jerusalem Branch, 24 Strauss Street (Navigator).

Beer Sheva Branch, 18 Derech Hashalom (Navigator).

During this day, you will participate in several stages that examine your abilities: Computerized tests, the "field stage" that includes moderate physical effort, a personal simulations station, a lecture station, a group discussion station and more.
