Divining the right role, capabilities, structure, and Regimental System for Canada's Army Reserves

[Kirkhill]

I'm suddenly less inclined to take complaints about difficulty finding employment seriously.

In fairness the Bot-moderated hiring process is pretty demoralising.

I hope some heads fucking roll in 31 Bde and 2 Div for this travesty. Huge cuts eith an added insult. Its bloody Remembrance Day. Odd that in my career Ive never seen things at such a low point for the Reserves and the CAF generally has so much money.

candidates who now prioritize salary transparency, flexibility, and a respectful hiring process over simply landing any job.

"Respectful hiring process." That sounds nice.

What if the budget was never cut, but collectively the CAF already overspent the FY budget of Reserve Pay?

Those Trudeau era budget cuts to O&M are still on the books and took place. Unless the government can prove it was an overspend and not cuts, the writing appears to be on the wall.

It sounds ominous to me…

Suppose there existed an organization that could conjure a coherent narrative and communicate it effectively.

Standing in front of a muni Oral Board / Panel in your Sunday suit was pretty ominous...

The PRes Interview was nicer.

Both were a long time ago. Not sure if how they do them now is more , or less , respectful. Or, about the same.
