Passed the CFAT. I was told that the schedule section were busy on the day I wrote and couldn't book the medical or interview and to wait for a call.  Does it make sense to give them a quick call anyways to just make sure I'm on their list of people to call to book for the interview? I don't want to bug anyone, but I also know that sometimes things get lost or forgotten...

[Cbbmtt]

I would wait a bit if they said wait for a call, maybe a week or two.

I've been waiting almost a month and a half for the interview call and I check back with my recruiter every Monday through email to see if my career choices are still open and he said that he was cool with that.

There's not really a wrong answer, but personally I wouldn't want to annoy anyone.

I think we wrote together that day.  They kept me behind to sort out the mix up with my file and then told me I don't have a lot of time between now and selection and booked my medical and interview the soonest they could.  I guess it really depends on the trade that you are going in for.

Congratulations M,

would you be willing to share what field you studied in to get accepted as DEO?  I'm debating finishing my education on my own and applying DEO as Pilot in a couple years, or enrolling sooner through ROTP/CEOTP. Worried that my degree may not be job-orientated enough. Thanks in advance,

T

Unless your degree is Leisure Studies, you're probably fine.  I'm merit listed for Pilot and my degree is Criminology.

Actually, I have my BSc. degree in molecular biology which has little to do with aerospace. I however, did take astronomy, physics, calculus and chemistry for that degree. They liked that I had a diverse science background. I had an extensive leadership background which aided in my application. I also scored well on the CFAT and ASC tests. Do not worry too much about your degree specifications. It would be helpful to show you can do math and understand some physics.

Cheers and Best of Luck,

M

Wish me luck. The wait for first contact alone is already killing me. It sucks waiting for something you want so badly. I hope I'm worth it too look at and am good enough to join. I feel I am. Lets just hope the forces do as well!

Edit: I want to apply for armoured soldier as well but the recruiter told me this is something you clear up during the interview process
