    Sword and Belt with DEU

    George At the moment there are no other EME officers in my unit, only LOG. Shamrock Have not earned capbadge so I know I wouldn't actually be wearing a belt with the EME crest / doing sword drill anytime soon.  Have some cash on hand right now and was thinking I could put it towards that...

    Different paths for becoming an officer

    Have you looked at a Reserve unit to see if they have DEO positions in what you're looking for? You could also consider joining a reserve unit as an NCM in an armour, artillery or infantry position and then apply into the Reg F as an officer when a spot opens up.

    ^Agreed, I was just accepted into the army reserve last week and I'm 26.  I became interested in joining the reserves just after I turned 25.

    Officers with Ring on Pinky Finger

    Stay In Touch With Your Recruiter: My Story

    Well the application is back at the recruiting centre and am waiting for it to be passed on to the Reserve.  I'm pretty sure I'll be getting an offer but I'm still conflicted as to when I'll be able to do my first training.  I'm still extremely disappointed with the recruiting centre but am...

    Stay In Touch With Your Recruiter: My Story

    I normally try to avoid posting questions on the recruiting board as I could easily find my answers and I thought I really had everything together, as my exam and interview had went spectacular and everything was coming along.  To anyone going through the application process, I'd just like to...

    Case of curiousity

    I don't know for certain but I'd think your CFAT would be fine, you'd definitely have to do the interview again though. Also just call your recruiter, I would think that they could switch it over for you.  You definitely want to get this changed asap, if you went the component transfer route you...

    How long will the DEO waiver be processed normally?

    Not sure exactly what you mean by waiver but I don't think you're going to get an exact answer on this one.  I applied in April and I wrote my CFAT before my security check was complete.  I am also applying DEO but to the reserves though.

    Signals Officer

    ^Please calm down.  Your first post here being an attack doesn't exactly demonstrate your fine qualities either. To original poster. If you seriously think an engineering degree is going to be too much work maybe you should consider something different.  I graduated with a mechanical...

    Questions on Recruiting in the Combat Trades

    It is best to call the reserve you would be applying to.  Each reserve has a different demand so the forces.ca doesn't represent the demand at each reserve. Good luck.

    Much appreciated, multi-topic advice...

    To answer your question on what science to take, take physics.  Physics will be the most practical.
