would you happen to have a link to where these countries are listed?

if thats the case it would be great. I just dont recall whether my recruiter mentioned this or not, but regardless thats uplifting news! EDIT: whats the difference between background check and security clearance?

wow thats really an insanely long time

Heya, Im applying to reserves infantry (1st choice, then combat engineer and armoured recon if that plays any role) and I was told by a recruiter that for non-canadians (which is my case, I am a PR, originally from EU) and canadians who lived outside of canada for significant amount of time the...

the email from recruiter says the passports are not accepted. As to why I have no idea

Im considering that in the future. As a matter of fact I do have a driver’s license but from my country so I guess its the same process. For now I gotta find a workaround though. Hopefully the birth certificate will do

yeah from what I have read on the forums so far I got the same impression that getting the answer is a hassle so I will be definitely following up on it if I dont get a reply in a week or so

haha I hope you're right. If I only get teased for it I guess its sort of deserved, should have paid more of an attention. It's just in my experience, in civilian world most of the recruiters would not even bother replying if they saw a candidate messed up their company's name so Im just...

So long story short, I am interested in joining reserves and looked up all the units around me. After a few days day of reading up on them, the roles available within them and checking which ones are in a commutable distance I finally decided to reach out to the one I liked the most. And like an...
