Just wondering if anyone else has been called for the 2nd if March bmq! Accepted my offer today :)

Ah, well maybe one day the budget will allow for that again ... We can dream! How sophisticated were they? I'm clueless on how it's done or if its even possible to screw up, but would it detect/signal if somebody screwed up while laying it?

Awesome, thanks guys! I knew there was more than just shooting blanks and arguing over who got shot.  ;D

Hey everyone, I was watching a documentary earlier about the US Army and noticed that they use a laser-type simulator for combat training (Multiple Integrated Laser Effects System) . I looked around but can't find anything about Canada using this. I found info on a Weapon Effect Simulator, but...

Your appointment involves more than just the test. You will wait while everybody ''signs in" and gets paperwork in order, listen to instructions, then write the test. Afterwards, you will likely meet with your file manager to discuss your occupation choices and whether or not you qualified...

Congrats! I received an offer for Cbt Engineer last week as well for Feb 9 BMQ. Requested to push back the date by a week, so maybe I'll be loaded onto the same course!

They do sell cigatettes at the canex.

The test itself is 45 minutes. Before the test, the recruiters take and check paperwork from everybody, abd then spend time clearly explaining the test. After the test you meet with your file manager. Depending on the order and hiw many people are there, this could take another hour or so. My...

I can't find the thread right now, but it was brought up not long ago and IIRC, you will be compensated for breaking your lease. Hopefully someone comes along with more help!

Thanks! The fact that the BMQ start date was going to be my wedding day reassured me that turning it down was the right call.

Called in today for an update, and was told I am being offered Artillery. Had to turn it down as I'm fully set on Cbt Engineer now. A good start to the new year, now back to waiting! Recruiting Center: Ottawa, ON Regular/Reserve: Regular Officer/NCM: NCM Trade Choice 1: Combat Engineer Trade...

http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/paris-magazine-attack/paris-attack-suspect-dead-two-custody-u-s-officials-say-n281761 Faster than I expected... 1 suspect reported killed, 2 in custody. EDIT: Hopefully this is true. NBC is the only one reporting it so far.

As a side note, don't double post. Some folks reeealy don't like that around here!

Hopefully to get things straight, that was the actual question.

Some people wait many months before hearing anything; some people wait days.  It depends on what you're applying for and if they are hiring. As far as contacting recruiters for updates, it's never easy getting a hold of somebody, no matter the day or time. And yes the offices will be closed...

Merry Christmas everyone. Feels more like spring but hey, I'll take the gifts. I wish everyone the best next year!

CNN reporting Korea is offline again. Hopefully this entertainment continues... All over a movie.
