The hours now start to feel days; the days like weeks as I wait patiently for that one line of communication that states whether I am accepted or declined. With each passing day, this call begins to turn into the most important phone call I've ever received.

It was pretty fast, wasn't it? Thank goodness for that.

Well, since I pretty much just applied I guess I don't have much to say yet. All in all, I'm fairly excited and I hope the rest of the process goes as fast as it seems to be going at the moment. I'd imagine that if everything goes well I won't get an offer until April at the earliest, but I suppose I'll just have to wait and see. 

[Celticgirl]

Good luck on your med/interview today

Thanks. Both went well, but as I said in Personal Stories, the security clearance is going to drag the process out. Other than that, I'm an ideal candidate apparently. Too bad I have to wait months to pursue my career aspirations.

No, but I kind of like this one better (now) ...

Any other Medical Technician Hopefuls out there? Ive been told too that the element I chose ( Air Force ) doesnt get alot of Medical technician applicants. And Yes I know its a purple trade, the CFRC personel told me that most choose Army. Just want to see if anyone else is out there. PM me if you like.

[InterloperX]

Ummm..thinking I may be in the wrong forum, but hey, gotta try.  I've got lots of questions.
I initially wanted to sign up in october of 07'.  I got nowhere as I was told the path I chose was full due to budget constraints.   I finally got all my post graduate results up to the recruiting guys but now its no good.  Because I lived in the UK and got my masters degree from there,they are now making me pay for a certification of a police check....I've already paid for a personal liability check and moreso a degree thing....how much longer does this go on?  All I want to do is serve but you'd think 3 degree's is more trouble than its worth for the CF.........I'm in purgatory........do I regress to the financial world or no?  The thing that is making me more unsure is that if I lied about living abroad I'd be in by now......I'm applying for infantry officer or intelligence officer with 11 years of military theory behind me.  Any input would be appreciated.

Well I just got off the phone with my file manager for the army and told her that I have been waiting for a while to get the letter from the credit company saying that it was paid off. I told her I had been emailing them and asked if I could send that in instead and she said she would show her supervising officer and see if it would be sufficient. Apparently it was and I have my interview on Monday and was also told to expect to be merit listed in the next two weeks and to be in basic training by the end of march. Needless to say I am pretty excited and hoping there is no more bumps in the road.
