Ok, I am on my knees. :P

Ok, boss. Lesson learned.

Such an avid expression of hierarchy and discipline on a "forum", which compels me to say this is an unfortunate understanding of the concept "internet discussion". Hopefully these bureaucratic censors are unique only to those old army guys and not everyone. I will try to follow grammatical...

i c nothing wrong in recruiting the best and brightest the community has to offer and still respect pplz decision not to make the military their career.

9 years is not a contract. its just a term the army will guarantee you a job. i believe the minimum obligatory service time before eligible for voluntary release is calculated as: time training + timing training x 2. for instance if i trained for a year, i am expected to give 2 years of service...

i been merited for like 2 days. I interviewed in one week and got an offer the next week for armoured DEO, if i remembered correctly. Extra long merit waiting = didnt make the cut  :P.

Yea i think Eng O is in demand, there were even spots for DEO from last year (which I applied and didnt get it). High demand for that trade. 

Agree not worth it. I took the test while in high school and passed for officers for this year. I was pretty stoned in high school. XD I am sure you're brighter than me in HS.

Call the recruiting center, i bet they have live stats on trade #s.

nice

I applied late feburary 2012, interviewed and medical on the may 24th, got called june 25th. Its kinda fast since the selection date in june just happens to be right after completing all the paper work. But good luck to you.

Just got the call for armoured DEO (25 June), course starts on the 20th Aug, nice! Cheers,

Well I am on the west coast and selection in our area seemed slower than east coast. I am hopeful candidate, and armoured was my first choice. Maybe you're right, the selection pool is common between franco and anglo. Nonetheless, congrats.

ok francophone DEO, we the english crowd is still in the air. XD

Imao, still finger crossed for DEO selection!
