    Turning down RMC ??

    Personally, I think once RMC has decided that you get ROTP, thier magic 8-ball decides whether you go to RMC or CivvieU ... ha ha ha! Congratulate your brother westcoast ... apparently he snuck in as one of the last classes accepted at CAMP ... as of this year it's no longer an acceptable ROTP...

    First time to CFRC

    May I suggest that you find out the Education requirements for the trades you're interested in and maybe use THAT to narrow down which one(s) you may want to apply for? If you're interested in Veh Tech and Nursing Officer, but you only have a grade 10, that would solve the problem for you...

    First time to CFRC

    Canadian Forces Recruiting Status

    Wow, if this were a highway, we'd have a 50 car pile-up! I have never seen SO many people out of thier lanes and so few IN their lane trying to get everyone on track! Air Force guys advising about life in the Navy, non-recruiting types telling MCC's what we're hiring ... holy crap what a...

    I need real help

    Nice back-track FJ ... When I first got the e-mail of your post at work today, I WAS going to track down your file and ensure that your MCC knew how you really felt about the service you were getting ... Now that you've calmed down and written your mea culpa, I'll forget about it. I KNOW the...

    Is there demand for Direct Entry Officers?

    Quick Post hijack: It is NOT all "blah blah blah" to me ... HOWEVER ... 1) when you hear that 50 times a day because some kid saw Rambo last night 2) and HE thinks that's what I want to hear in order to allow him to "join the Army", 3) AND he can't even be bothered to do ANY research in...

    Is there demand for Direct Entry Officers?

    First hand experience Mentor Hat on OK, here goes: Nothing against anyone, and I'm NOT directing this in particular at the OP, but can you IMAGINE how many times I hear how badly someone wants a job because they want to serve their country, they feel it's a noble profession, they believe in...

    i'm totaly confused....

    Mentor Hat On Just a thought ... you COULD just go get an advanced (university prep) level math course in Adult Ed (six week duration I think) and then be eligible to apply (I MAY be wrong, but I'm pretty sure off the top of my head that LCIS only requires proof of advanced Math ... so that...

    RMS Clerk trade closed?

    ::) Nope, it's closed because enough people applied to fill the numbers we required for intake for this year. What kind of 'politics' do you think could be involved? Like the chain of command has something against getting paid the proper amount with the proper benefits on time?
