I am inquiring about Signals Officer

Good day, I applied to an officer occupation which is 'in demand' via DEO but since the MCC wasn't sure my degree was acceptable, an education waiver request was submitted to Ottawa. I just want to ask how long it usually takes to find out whether it is approved, and whether special...

From what I understand, Nursing Officers have an administrative rather than a patient-care role (at least in peacetime). Whether that's good or bad, is very subjective. It makes sense that more and more people are applying to be Officers in the CAF when you consider the benefits of doing so...

I'm going to say that what the recruiter told you is true, because that's what I was told when I called in last week for a status update. I also believed that submitting the admission letter was only required for enrollment. It seems that last year, this was the case. But recently they have...

Apparently the second round of selection was on Monday (May 5th). What's left are the "top-ups" that occur later on. I've been merit listed but haven't heard anything as of yet. Sometimes people who have received ROTP offers turn them down for whatever reason, so there is some hope.

@carefree: I see, well that could be good news for us! @nursekatrina: Thank you :) I'm not entirely holding my breath, but who knows?

So I've been put on the merit list once again after being persistent. Although I'm not entirely sure how many spots have already been filled. Is the likelihood of receiving an offer slim at this point?

I'm thinking maybe it's just an excuse to weed people out, since the number of applications far exceeds that of available positions. I honestly cannot find any logic behind why the collaborative programs wouldn't be eligible, especially if the university is offering the program and they are...

@chris1234688 That sucks. I don't believe they had these policies last year. As for Laurentian and Windsor, I think those are collaborative programs as well according to: https://www.casn.ca/vm/newvisual/attachments/856/Media/AccreditedCanadianNursingEducationPrograms.pdf Just something you...

@chris1234688: Cool! Please let me know what they say regarding the collaborative nursing programs. After my interview, I was just told that I was "suitable". Nursing Officer was the only occupation that I applied to, so they didn't direct me towards a different one. I have some volunteer...

@nursekatrina: To be honest, I'm bewildered as well. For example, I applied to the 4-Year UOIT-Durham College Collaborative Nursing Program. I was told by my recruiter and file manager that it is not eligible because it's associated with a college. Any nursing program that is associated with a...

Thanks man  :)  :salute:

Thanks for the advice, that is exactly what I will do. I just called my CFRC and was informed that I have been removed from the merit list because the 4-year nursing programs I applied to were "collaborative" and therefore ineligible for ROTP. So it's the end of the line for me, but good luck to...

:( not good. My teacher's college offer expires around that time, which was my back up in case I didn't make the cut for nursing officer.

From what I have read somewhere in this forum, it is indeed possible to receive a conditional offer for ROTP for Pilot. However if the ROTP applicant fails Aircrew Selection, then that offer is revoked. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

So it has been moved  :'( Time feels like it's passing extra slow now

Hi mariomike, I am from Toronto. What would you say the chance of employment is with Toronto EMS or Durham EMS for a new graduate? According to what I've read online, new graduates have a very difficult time finding employment and those that do, end up working with private EMS and earn a meager...

More like next week! Good luck

The first round is apparently during the first week of April, so you still have time to be merit listed. If not for the first, then at least for the second one.

Thanks for the replies. I emailed the admissions office and was informed that most likely they would not be able to extend the admission offer expiry date because of how competitive the programs are. However I was told to contact the nursing program coordinator regarding this issue (which I...
