"The recruitment bureau in Tel Hashomer used to receive 250 youths a day before the corona for a first order and during the corona an average of 120 to maintain the guidelines," explained a senior officer in the ACA. "B.
We had to finish the first order as early as last September and we have not finished yet. "According to the officer," we are required to complete and speed up the pace. "
The first order consists of four main stations: a data verification station that collects data about the PLO. The PLO (General Landmark), intelligence tests and medical examination.

Now, in order to reduce the schedules of the first order day, it was decided to transfer the completion of the data verification questionnaire to the Internet - by the Home Office. This step saves about an hour and a half in the recruitment bureau.
In addition, it was decided to conduct the Hebrew test. On the Internet, with an application through which the NCO will receive a message with a date and time for a meeting with the recruitment bureau.
This step is expected to be implemented as early
as
the end of the month
. The MSF will also fill out the medical questionnaire from home via the Internet, as well as send medical opinions signed by doctors. A special team set up at Meitav (Tel Hashomer Absorption and Sorting Base) will monitor The registration will verify that all the forms are online before arriving at the recruitment bureau, in order to prevent bureaucracy and return to another meeting with the doctor.
It is estimated that uploading the forms to the network saves a return of about 30% of the recruiters to the recruitment bureau.
If all the forms are not uploaded - compliance with the first order will be postponed to another close date.
Thus, in fact, the length of stay in the recruitment bureau is expected to be shortened by an average of two hours - from seven hours to about five hours.
"The personal interview and the doctor's examination are always done physically in a recruitment bureau and not in a zoom. This has great and important significance," explained the senior ACA official.

The source also said that "what does not allow me to go down from about five and a half hours to visit the recruitment bureau in the first order for four hours is the DFR test (psychotechnical rating). They are very long. The average time is two and a half hours."
He said, "To shorten the process, an augmented reality tender was put out to tender after an experiment. Hopefully it will mature by March 2021. When that happens we will go down for four hours."
"In the meantime," the senior added, "we are in the process of doing customized DPR tests.
The test starts from the low level to the high level.
The adapted test will have 20 questions and not 40 - shortens the test by almost half. "He explained that" the test is developed with the advice of IDF doctors, behavioral scientists and computer scientists. "
The IDF said that the army is still narrowing gaps from the first closure to the number of youths who did not complete a first order. Soon, 2004 students will be summoned for a first order. The physical phase in the first order, held at the recruitment bureaus, and proceed only in the digital route.
As a result, the gaps will increase, leading to gaps in recruitment dates as well.
If another closure is imposed, they will have to close the physical phase again.

Meanwhile, in order to prepare for the digital change that "Meitav" is undergoing, and to answer the questions of the PLOs in the face of the corona, it was decided to reduce the corona focus of Meitav from 120 service representatives who would attend about 8,000 youths per day - to 42 representatives, according to the Ministry of Health. .
also the focus of activity temporarily reduced the hours 14: 00-08: 00. However, the activity was transferred to the network - especially on facebook. "facebook last year responded to 220 calls per day and is currently answering to 2,500 calls per day. Only on Facebook. In January we had two service representatives on Facebook. Today there are 36, "said the source in the ACA. "In 2019, 35,000 inquiries were received on Facebook and we will end the current one with 170,000 inquiries."
