    My online application was removed. Does it mean anything?

    I think some CFRC prefer the old fashioned way. I went to my CFRC (in Montreal) to have a recruiter review all documents before I sent everything. What ended up happening was they opened my file right there and then, called North Bay and told them to send the filled up application file by...

    keeping contact with your recruiter

    If you are merit listed I would say no; unless there is anything pending in your file that needs to be addressed. If you have yet to be merit listed, call whenever you have a good question that you can't get the answer to by researching yourself.

    My online application was removed. Does it mean anything?

    If memory serves me right, I remember reading somewhere that the online application tracking only works the first time. After that you can't track your progress on the website any more. .

    What Happens When You Eject Out Of A Jet At 800 MPH

    Thanks, and I agree with that. It is our duty to always try and minimize the risk.  :) Also true!

    What Happens When You Eject Out Of A Jet At 800 MPH

    Very true. I think we can agree on that the proper balance between the two should be achieved. If a certain improvement can be made without compromising that balance, then it is our job to at least try to implement said improvement. Although you are right, try telling that to the captain in...

    What Happens When You Eject Out Of A Jet At 800 MPH

    I always try to keep my mind open, and I always take the advice of those with experience. That includes the way I conduct myself on this forum. All the more respect to him, and in this case, I would even expect some sort of support from him. I was simply stating that civilian engineers working...

    I'll offer my congrats only once you pass, until then prepare prepare prepare!  ;D

    What Happens When You Eject Out Of A Jet At 800 MPH

    If that is true, than the engineers and scientists developing these air-crafts (since 1989) need to seriously consider high-speed ejections a little more seriously. I am not precisely in tune with the aeronautical engineering industry, but for the most part operator/passenger safety is almost...

    What Happens When You Eject Out Of A Jet At 800 MPH

    Someone always has to learn the hard way before the rest of us can have it (at least) a little easier. :salute:

    Serving your country.  :) I wish I can offer better advice but I know nothing of the Nursing trade! And, I am an applicant at this point so I have no real experience yet. Welcome to the boards!

    Regular Officer Training Plan (ROTP)-RMC 2000 - 2018 [Merged]

    I agree, we should still hold our heads up high and be optimistic as some will still make the cut.  :) But... it would be naive to ignore the facts that were revealed to us about the new budget. About five years ago the DND was promised a 20 billion increase starting in 2011-2012 over the span...

    Regular Officer Training Plan (ROTP)-RMC 2000 - 2018 [Merged]

    For whoever has been following the budget reveal, it is most likely a very sad day for all of us here in this thread hoping for good news in mid April. Whatever money the CF had budgeted to expanding its regular force size from ~68k personnel to ~70k personnel was just thrown out the window...

    Budget 2012

    http://www.canada.com/mobile/iphone/story.html?id=6380737 A good listed summary of today's budget reveal. Check out #17 down the list for a summary on CF affected pension contributions. I believe right now it is 60/40 and now it will transform to 50/50. Also, although the internal details have...

    Pay Increments for academic qualifications etc

    Thank you for enlightening the perspective. If a degree has lost any of its merit, it is most likely due to the pressures of society placed on the individual to meet this elevated standard. If this is the case, the natural tendency will be to reduce the level of difficulty to achieve a degree...

    Pay Increments for academic qualifications etc

    After completing roughly two (out of four) years of Electrical Engineering at McGill University, I can tell you that you are either completely mistaken or are generalizing way too much. To put this into perspective, just last term we had to build a fully functional autonomous robot from scratch...
