    Trade Question

    Some of my experiences at the CFRC mirror that of CelticGirl as well. When I was doing my research for CF trades, I found a lot of compatibility with a few NCM positions and one Officer position. When I went into the CFRC to talk about it, they encouraged me to apply as an officer, and even...

    On My Way

    Congratulations my friend! It's great to read stories that show the smooth flow of operations at the CFRC's. I have nothing but positive things to say about the CFRC in Ottawa as well. I also applaud your first "tour" at the Timmies :) That would have been quite the experience. Good luck in the...

    Canadian Forces Called Me

    Just trying to understand - you did the medical and the interview and they told you that you didn't pass them? Did you ask them why you failed the medical? Also, is this for Reg or Reserve? I am just as curious as you as to what this interview could be :) Keep us posted. EDIT: sorry, just...

    Cant Wait!!

    LOL, this is so spot on. It's part of the application process - the waiting and it's what makes those phone calls all the more exciting! Good luck my friend.

    Intelligence Officer / Operator

    The best advice anyone gave me when applying included the following: 1) Visit the www.forces.ca website (which includes an online chat feature); 2) Talk to the local CFRC; 3) Search the forums because chances are, that your questions have already been answered (numerous times). In response to...

    BMOQ Survival Tips for St Jean

    Thanks for your tips. They are very much appreciated. However, with this particular point I have quoted above, there is a huge thread in this forum (IIRC the no excuse (bmq tips) thread), about not cutting corners with a personal toiletry kit. :-\ However, your advice here is that it is okay to...

    Military Swim Test - When, Where, and How- Merged

    I am yet another potential member of the CF family who is taking steps to be a competent swimmer before training. It is definitely embarrassing because I am competitive by nature but being in a pool where everyone is swimming and I am struggling to tread water is a blow to the ego :) But it's a...

    RECENTLY TOOK THE CFAT

    If people haven't taken any tests in a long time, it helps to refresh math and spatial abilities skills. Personally what I did was, head out to the local library and get as many aptitude testing books as I could get my hands on. The ASVAB books also help, although the US Armed Services aptitude...

    What Was/Is Your Biggest Obstacle?

    For me, it was the pre-sec and being told at the CFRC, that it could take up to two years to clear.  :o Not that I didn't understand the need for a pre-sec but the thought of having to wait two years was a little discouraging. However, it was cleared in just two months! I just had to stay...
