When a selection is made by either the production Officer at a CFRC or at CFRG the merit list is computer generated. Once the selection is started new names added to the merit list will not show up until the list is regenerated. If you are "in the numbers" before the selection runs and there is...
Actually you should ask to talk to a Military Career Counsellor (MCC) not your file manager. The MCC was the one who reviewed your CFAT score, educational transcripts and evaluated you during the interview. They are trained to advise you on what you should do to upgrade your competitiveness...
Hodr,
You did get the briefing on your pay and benefits under ROTP? The one that explains that as a married with dependants soldier you will be exempt from paying rations and quarters while in school. That is the only benefit you are entitled to as is everyone else who is enrolled. It's a little...
One of the biggest challenge in the recruiting forum is that many of the posts and their detailed responses have been over taken by time. Changes in policy and recruiting policy makes many of the threads very erroneous and misleading. Maybe a purge is in order.
Selections are either Open Selection List (OSL) or National Selection List (NSL).
OSL means that each production officer at your local CFRC has the ability to select and assign you to an occupation and training course (BMQ or BMOQ). The occupations that are usually OSL are generally more in...
When you get an official job offer from your CFRC your marital staus will be requested. At that time you will be told what documents to bring in to prove your status. Doing so before you get an offer is counter productive as the CFRC are not allowed under the privacy act to ask about your...
Start your application NOW. It will take sometime to get your Prior Learning Assesment done. You can apply unskilled now and once your chefs course is done you MIGHT be upgraded to semi skilled. You can be selected as unskilled and go to BMQ without your semi skilled status confirmed. That puts...
Sky 777,
You are correct, there are two types of selection.
National selections done by CFRG or in some specialist occupations done by a board in NDHQ. NSL selection dates are available to the CFRCs.
Open selections are done by the production staff at the CFRCs. They normally select only when...
Relax, you have lots of time. ROTP first selection isn't until mid March and offers will be after that. IF selected you wouldn't get enrolled until sometime in July. Plenty of time to get the issue cleared up.
Image Tech is NOT open for direct entry this FY, there are no vacancies except for the special Infantry voluntary occupational transfer program.
I would suggest you apply as an Image tech and request a Prior Learning Assessment Report (PLAR) be done to see if you are classed as semi skilled...
Cory75,
I would advise you to go talk to a recruiter if you haven't yet to ensure you get the right math. Go, open your file now and start the process, get your CFAT done etc so once you finish your math upgrade you will be partially processed and it won't take as long. Best of luck.
The occupations that are open effective 1 April have been processing and filling BMQ's for a few weeks already. Maybe Marine electrician isn't open yet.
We fill BMQ vacancies with whomever we have on the merit list so you might get a course with more than half the same occupation. I'm sure...
