I think long term class B (the 3 year contract type) are eligible for PMQs if there are any available at their location, but I think their priority falls behind posted in members of the Reg F.

There is a shortened BMOQ for medical officers and padres and those hypes. Padres are not supposed to handle weapons so they don’t get as in depth training during BMOQ. Doctors are also too expensive to send to the range or to let run loose with weapons; they get protected in the R1 or the R2 so...

1. You can only apply for officer or NCM on your application - not both. So you will have to decide whether you want HRA and MMT, or whether you want officer. If officer wasn't listed as an option, even if the unit obviously has officers, it's possible that they are full of officers, and can't...

So if it's at Canex, it is open to civillians, correct? It's like Dr Innes who used to be the civvy dentist in what is now the Lifelabs building. Congrats either way. Having to drive 20+ minutes to Alliston or 30+ minutes to Barrie (depending on where in Barrie you are going) sucks, so closer...

I'll be honest, I did not read the 12 pages of comments above the infographic, but why is a low birth rate a problem?

So ARes is not the same as regular reserves (army or navy). Air Reserves is more of a full time job, with all your courses being full time, and taskings are also full time. Army reserves is part time (one night a week, one weekend a month) with potential for full time contracts. If you were...

Also, Air reserves tend to work fulltime, up to 20 days a month. How will you manage that with your full time career?

But make sure your exhaustive and detailed appeal letter comes from your DOCTOR and not from you personally. The RMO likely won't even read any letter or appeal written by a random applicant.It will more than likely just get tossed. All the proofs and evidences that show you are not as bad as...

Indefinitely. Competition list simply means you have completed all the steps and you are a potential candidate. There may be other more qualified, more competitive candidates that keep pushing you down the list, meaning you could stay on it a long, long time.

There are no tips and tricks to the medical - that would defeat the purpose of being honest. For hearing preservation, use your ear defenders when on the range, and turn down the volume in your car or when using earbuds/headphones.

Toronto has nothing to do with it. The letter will come from the RMO's office in Ottawa, although the physical letter may have a Borden return address. To ensure consistency and accuracy, there is only one RMO's office for all the recruiting centres. They've never met you in person, all they see...

Anytime from 2 minutes to never. Has the background check been done? What trade are you applying for? Have you been placed on the competition list yet? The list is competitive, hence the name, so there could be people that get selected before you, due to their application being more...

If you are rejected you will receive a phone call and a letter detailing how to appeal the medical rejection. Appealing the decision doesn't guarantee anything will change, but nothing can change if you don't appeal. If you are accepted the recruitment progress will continue. You may see updates...

Depending on who the "she" is in your story (doctor, recruiter, neighbor) none of us can really say. The RMO will review your forms and make a decision. It sounds hopeful but again, none of us are the RMO.

It is case by case. They will investigate what you might have done in that 1 year outside Canada and determine if you are a security risk or not. You may have to redo the security form once you are at basic, and again in 5 years or so. Keep that information handy, as it make it easier to fill...

The Reserves and the Reg F have the same medical entry standards, so the medical should be identical. The main difference in the recruiting process is Reservists do the Force test as part of their application process, whereas Reg F do it the first week of BMQ. The Reserves were trialing an...

CFAT scores are based on a percentile, and are not always revealed to the candidate/applicant. Usually recruiters will tell you you either passed for all trades, you passed for the trade(s) you are interested in, or you did not score high enough for your trade(s). You should always aim for...

All jobs require the CFAT. The CAF is trialing an expedited application system where you would do the CFAT at the end of basic to save time. People fail the CFAT because they don’t read the question, or they have forgotten how to do grade 10 math or what words mean. Infantry does not have a low...

Everyone is evaluated on a case by case basis. No one here can say whether or not you will be accepted with your condition because we haven’t seen your file. The only truly disqualifying medical issues are things absolutely incompatible with service, such as blindness, deafness, missing limbs...

On what authority do you think the CAF can “force” you to repay this non-existent debt? Or any other debt for that matter? They area potential employer. They have no power over you.
