1) Every application is different, you may or may not have what the CF is looking for at the time of your application.
2) Prior service delays your application as they need to retrieve your records from archives and determine your release terms.
3) Applying for trades that are closed is not conducive to a speedy enrollment.

You are right in that every application is different, of course. I'm thinking it has a lot to do with going through the archives and what they are looking for, for such a trade, although I have some background in Pure and Applied Sc and Programming... but the trade was and is open as far as CRFC Montreal is aware, even though the site shows otherwise. Something to do with regional quotas?

Best luck to you in your re-enrollement if it's not already done!

I am not sure about quotas maybe someone with recruiting experience can help you with that one. Good luck to you as well, hang tough.

Prior service delays for application for sure. It took i think 5 or 6 months for my VFS and medical to come back before i could even begin the process

Waters81, I'm sure you will do great! For my interview, I looked on the forum for some tips. It was very helpful, and just remember to try and research as much as you can about training, the trade your getting into, anything you can. It's easier to be over prepared than fall short at the end.

If you work hard, you will get what you deserve in the end! Goodluck!

Passed interview yesterday for DEO Pilot and Armour Officer.  ;D

[mse-op_mz]

Has anyone been recruited for the bmq starting in May? The board sat April 23rd and haven't heard if anyone has been offered a job lately? Just curious if it's really been quiet since the last bmq start April 30th.
Thanks!

I had my interview this morning and according to the career counselor,I nailed it and should have no problem being merit listed for all 3 of my choices. Let's hope the selection board feels the same way.
GOD it feels good to be on step further along.

 

[mse-op_mz]

It might be a similar question, at that time someone posted about the coarse start dates on the CFLRS website that I didn't know about, so that's great info, but it doesn't hurt to ask if anyone has heard for May BMQ yet, since it's coming up only 2 weeks from now. Just wanted to know if anyone had a job offer, so far no one has said yet. Sorry for feeling out where people are at.
