    Naval Reserves Questions

    I decided to change my file from Army Reserves to Navy Reserves, just honestly everything about it sounds better (At least from what I have heard). I have a few questions, that I have attempted to search for but I am really coming up with nothing. All I can find is Army Reserve questions and...

    Drug use/drug testing in the CF (merged)

    Honestly reading this post I could care less about "the family member being promiscuous", the thing that really caught my eye is the usage of cocaine. This person obviously is on a self destructive path, and honestly a call to the MP's should be made. Even after BMQ the usage of the drug is...

    Fitness for Operational Requirements of CAF Employment ( FORCE )

    During the FORCE fitness test when I was at CFLRS, if you fell during the drag they would let you restart, even if you failed the "Rushes" (If it was close to 51s) they would let you attempt the "Rushes" again, otherwise if you fail on the second attempt you will get another re-test in a couple...

    Verification of Former Service (VFS) [Merged]

    My one year is up on February 26th, 2016. Lately I have been thinking it would be smarter for me to join Regular Force again. I want to give it some time before I do decide though, and ultimately if I get a job offer for the Reserves before February 26th, I will likely take it, though if not I...

    Nice, at least you have a scheduled date! My background checks are currently in the works, but I know my credit check was done 11/27 so I am hoping they're done soon, and I hear something before the CFRC is closed for the holidays. Good luck with the rest of your process!

    Thanks so much for your reply! Yes I would be going from Cook to Cook, my current job is more than accommodating for time off. I told them I would need some time off if I were enrolled within the reserve unit and they were totally fine with it, my current employer actually said it's a benefit to...

    Classes While Waiting

    Had to take a double check to make sure I can post here, looks like I can. Alright so, just going to be blunt..... There is no guarantee you get in, after processing you could be sitting on the merit list for possibly awhile and even after that if it takes longer than a year, you're required...

    It's a toss up for me, I wanted a full time career in which I could experience the full thing. But I also wanted to make sure the trade I was going into was for me (Which was and is still Cook).... My civilian job right now happens to be a Cook, within a restaurant. But I am still not sure if...

    So I figured I would bite the bullet, and finally post in this thread. I VR'd in February during BMQ(Very stupidly, and have regretted it every day), my final release date was the 26th of February, I feel ashamed that I did especially after all the help I received getting in. But you learn...

    Application Process Samples [2003 - 2018]

    I figured I should update my Process considering it's been awhile. I did my interview update on the 19th of July, unfortunately the MCC deemed me unfit at that time to re-enroll because of my checkered work history, she told me to email her near the end of October as I will have been working for...

    Medical update

    Good day, I have a medical update coming up next weekend and I just had a couple questions. Even though I had my medical in October of last year the CFRC Medical personnel want me to do an updated medical, I was just wondering what that entails? Also wondering why I was scheduled for a Phase 1...

    They settled with only one of mine, a buddy I did some volunteer work with over the past 5 years for church. I did provide them with a teacher, and another person I did volunteer work with (church). And I spoke to my other references and they said they never got a call (My background check is done).

    What's the food like on course? (BMQ, DP, ect...) [Merged]

    in 3 weeks of being at RegF BMQ I lost about 15 pounds, though I ate like a maniac. If you don't eat they actually considered it disobeying orders.. You have 3 meals a day (something I wasn't used to), and usually you can grab many different portions to your meals, EG: Dessert, fruits, salads...

    Well apparently my background check is going to take longer than expected, apparently they just switched companies so there was backlog and apparently mine is still "pending" shouldn't be expecting a medical and interview for another couple months.... Fantastic.  :facepalm:

    Though I have secret clearance from before I released in Feb, I reapplied to the Reserves after releasing and they told me I have to do a background check again, I believe I'm in week 3 of them doing it. It takes time.

    So I failed the first fitness test (Barely by 5 seconds) the tester was calling faults on the 20 rushes, things he SHOULD NOT have been calling faults for (Like head being past the line, where it is clearly stated hands and shoulders can be on or behind the line), and was making us run past the...
