They won't be asking you for your civilian Medical Records.  You will complete a Medical Questionnaire and undergo a very basic medical exam.  Upon completion of the exam, a CAF Health Care Professional will go over the questionnaire with you to review your answers.  If by some chance they...

Pretty much anything beyond the "5-year" point will not be granted, unless, you have been employed in the private sector utilizing those skills and qualifications.  The PLAR is reviewed by the OA/TA (Occupation and/or Training Authority) for "currency" and not by CAF Recruiting.  So if the...

They're not "exempt" from BMOQ, rather only MOD 1 BMOQ due to prior service as an NCM (ie; already BMQ Qualified).  So next summer, they will be required to complete BMOQ MOD 2. http://army.ca/forums/threads/122202/post-1441971.html#msg1441971

You don't require any qualifications or prior experience to apply for the PH Tech Occupation (Plumbing and Heating Technician), only the willingness and ability to undertake the training.  ( http://www.forces.ca/en/job/plumbingandheatingtechnician-59 )

Yes, this process is still done.  Upon completion of your CFAT/TSD you will be required to complete the NPD Form (Non-Prescribed Drug Use) just like every other applicant.  The form is a "screening tool" and not a means for open discussion on the topic.  Your answers will be reviewed by a...

The Ammunition Technical Officer Specialty Qualification is a year long course, if not longer and I believe is available to qualified Logistics (Log O), Naval Combat System Engineer (NCS Eng), MARS, EME, AERE and Engr Officers. This link is from 2010 but should give you the basic information on...

You must have missed my later post.

The 2016/2017 SIP is for "current" year and won't necessarily apply to the above announced program which would be applicable for 2017/2018.  Maybe the "Out Year" SIP will show positions but I doubt it as it usually seems to reflect prior year requirements and is some what repetitious at best...

Interesting.  Two separate systems as far as I know.  How do you plan on recovering your "advanced" payments from the civilian employee once they do get paid?

Upon completion of your Interview and Medical, it will take 4-8 weeks before your Medical File has been reviewed and is returned to your CFRC.  Sometimes the background checks/screenings might be started in advance but they usually tend to wait until the Medical File has been returned from it's...

Had a nice chat last week with an elected official and when the topic came up, even they mentioned that their staff were having issues with receiving payments. I'm not familiar with the new system but I can't see it being too difficult to issue "contingency" and or "cheque" payments similar to...

No, that's not quite how things work.  Based on past experience, if your current home has already not been sold, the Brookfield Rep/Office will tend to NOT recommend taking an HHT, which is quite common but at the end of the day, it's your CO who is the approving authority and I can't recall...

It means that when the SCP was announced, HCA was not an available occupation which you could apply for.  SCP occupation vacancies change on an annual basis and available occupations are normally announced via a CANFORGEN Message.  So if occupations you are interested in are not published, you...

1.  No, not all applications will be sent for pre-board review.  Advancement will be based on your CFAT/TSD results, education credentials and professional experience (CV). 2.  Pre-boards are usually done on a National basis by a "Specialized" Legal Recruiter who is assigned this duty.  The...

Applications for the various Entry Plans are worked on year round and at times more priority will be given to certain Entry Plans during specific times of the year. Given the timelines that you have mentioned above, I'd suggest you contact your local Recruiting Detachment and ask for an update...

Generally speaking, the process should not take any longer than normal and actually could be quicker.  During this time of the year there is a turn over in Recruiting Staff at all Centres across Canada and this is a time when there could be two people working on your file.  One person doing the...

Probably not, as you need to already be a Canadian Citizen just to apply. http://www.forces.ca/en/page/applynow-100#who

The optimum is to list people who can cover the previous 5 year period.  When this is not possible, you can use multiple references to cover the preceeding 5 years, just ensure there are NO gaps in the time covered.  I don't see why you couldn't use multiple references from the same organization...

Yes, you can ask to speak directly with the CO but for someone undergoing initial occupation training, it's highly unlikely and the highest you might get to, is the OC level. By their own admission "I'm on my dp1 course and am suffering from some non immediate family deaths back home."  If the...
