I'm a little pissed because I've seen people that applied 10 days before me and there heading off to BMQ right now and all I've been notified of is that my back check is done... Oh well. I just want to get on my way already.

I can't send in my application until I get my BCID and I can't get that until I turn 19 in April so hoping when all is said and done by about the beginning of June, I'll be contacted for an infantry position, although kind of weary as so many people apply to that one. I've wanted to join the army since I was 8 and now finally following my dream, I'm so pumped for this and want to be the best I can be! Also weary about the CFAT as I've been outta school for a bit while I work right now.

I am so pumped to be the best soldier I can be though, and that's just not a young man's testosterone talking either.

Not trying to rain on your parade but if you only applied for the infantry you'll probably be contacted closer to 2011. To put things in perspective I've been waiting for the infantry since September and all they have processed on my application is my back check. And I applied at the same recruiting center as you. My suggestion is to put maybe 1 or 2 more trades on your application that interest you. Might speed things up. Best of luck man.
 
No worries. I assumed it'd be around that time as well and I'm down for waiting that long. Infantry is what I want to do the most, I don't want any other position in the army. In the mean time, I'll keep on training so I can perfect each and every part of the application rather then getting any other number. I'm very passionate about this and if it takes that long, so be it. :P Either way I am very pumped and will perform and train my best until then and if I get accepted, I'll keep at it as I plan to do it as a career. I've waited 11 years to join. I can wait another year or two.  :salute:

Plus, all good things do take time! I've learnt that much within my life and I'm not about to give up just because I have to wait a measly few years. I want to build character as in taking colder and colder showers until it's the coldest it can go, sleeping as cold as you can, making myself uncomfortable  for the sole fact of building character.

A few years ain't gonna keep me from joining what I want to do the most. You'd have to cut me apart to stop me, but even that's questionable.  :cdn:

Everything went SUPER fast for me.. the only set back I had was that I had to delay my interview, CFAT, and medical for a week since I could not make it for my original date. & I had to get my corrected vision re checked the day of my medical, but they recieved my new vision test the following morning. My file got sent away the next day, and the day after that I had a job offer  ;D (my dates above could be off a day or two, couldnt see my app process online)

Just a little update for you guys,

So my original job offer above got revoked since my blood pressure was high.. then I went and got it re checked and its all back to normal. So I did not make my BMQ for SigOp, and they said I would be recieving a job offer soon. I got the call on Monday again, and I have now recieved my original trade choice of Infantry!  My BMQ is supposedly August 16th, and I will be getting sworn in at the Vancouver CFRC.. my enrollment date is unclear at the moment because I have since moved back to BC from Quebec. So now my file is being sent to Vancouver and they will be contacting me next week with my swearing in date. So everything has worked out and all I need to do now is wait till August. The best part was I wanted infantry to begin with but got Sigop instead, but now I am back on track with the infantry. Pretty stoked. See you guys around.

I'm hoping to only have to wait a few months as I selected an 'in-demand' trade, but I know the wait is worth it.

Wow it's been a while since I have been able to update this, but everything is good news at least.  My ERC was granted back in January, talked to MCC and was informed this March that I had been merit listed and my file is with job offers - I'm apparently now just waiting for a BMQ date to be available!  Worth every minute of the application, and definitely looking forward to starting my new career!
