I am current in CL for DEO Signals Officer. I am an older individual and considered a senior in the IT world (not an e, c, or v to much politics for that to be worth my efforts). Sounds almost like my current day in the private sector. Work out. 6-7 (yes this is a bit unusual for most civies)...

DEO Signals Officer

I just got notified that I am officially on the Competition list. When I applied there were 49 out of 52 positions open (September) was told that in December there were still 49 out of 52 positions open.

My Application is now in final stages. The recruiter had informed me that unless my security fails I will get an offer. So now its just a waiting game.  Don't expect anything before feb due to holidays.

Fair enough.. I should have phrased it differently. Most incoming immigrants at the rate of current immigration rate will insure that most immigrants if not all will have dual citizenship or at least PR in their own home country. Simply adjusting for historical data of immigration will...

The US is not Canada. In addition please keep in mind that what was 70 years ago and might not be a relevant boiler plate assumption. https://www.gallup-international.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/GIA-Book-2015.pdf We are shutting down the entire country for Covid where the predominantly the...

Draft is a terrible idea so is conscription. If the people are not willing to fight for their country then maybe the country is not work fighting for. The country I was born had conscription and had major issues with it, they got rid of it and now they have a professional army and lots of young...

Well sounds like CAF is guilty of the deed.

Everyone in this thread sound like they were born in Canada or at least Westernized nation. As an immigrant that came from a Socialist utopia I can tell you that I wouldn't trust any politicians and I would have to be willfully ignorant and stupid to ignore trends of moral tyranny our leaders...

Still in the recruiting process The Covid 19 has been great for me. Lost fair bit of fat Got stronger Run more now Paid off any consumer debts Saving money

Fair enough. I didn't interpret your reply in that way, but now I understand what you meant now.

TOS is not a contract but TOS is part of the CAF employment contract. You don't agree to TOS but to an Employment contract. I spend way to much time looking at contracts. Little pedantic here.

Just to rephrase a little better. My name is on the contract and part of my personal ethos is agency and fidelity to my own actions. I am very ethically and morally bound to do what the contract obliges me to do and I will not break the contract. Never have and never will break a contract, and...

I agree with you. I see working in the Military as a job not a career or a calling. Its a contract job and that is all that it is to me. Career is a personal economic choice of employment paths. I have worked with contracts all my life the military job is a contract based on economic and socio...

Military is an itch I had to scratch. When I was 21 they told me DEO was bad because I had no leadership experience but I still applied. The wait was so long (1.5 years) that by the time they got back to me I had a job and a poor grad that's all I cared about. I declined the offer. This was in...

I do about 160 pushups a day now, 80 of those with a 40 pound vest. I also do 30 bag 40lb bag lifts. At least 40 burpees. I also manage to do a kilometer with 40lb vest run. Unfortunately its raining all day everyday here during the winter  out here and gym access is iffy (don't need to get...

I just recently got my interview for DEO Sig.. It was a about 20 minutes long. I was just asked maybe 3 questions that stood out about personal background. Which were answered in about two sentences. Very short. No follow ups. Then like 5-6 questions. Are you ok with this?, do you consent to...

Well Medical was done. Cause I am an older candidate I had to do Blood workup and submitted mid October. Recruiter received it late oct they said it would take 2 months to process, it was done in less two weeks! Finished interview this week. Now all that is left is Reference check and Security...

Well they must have processed my application and medical in like 2 weeks. Bureaucratic light speed. Got my interview, got passed that. Now Security and reference check. Estimated time Jan 13, but for some reason I think it will be faster. The one surprising thing was that DEO is a 9 year...

I was told there is a 2 month backlog just in processing medical results. I am not in a hurry as enlisting would result in a massive pay cut which is not ideal situation prior to December. I am still waiting for my interview. I suspect I will not hear from recruitment until Jan/Feb.  Maybe half...
