    Prospect of Combat Arms Trade Opening up quite grim, which trade would you join?

    When applying, for now at least, you still apply for either Sig Op, LCIS Tech or Lineman specifically. I had asked my recruiter about a few things regarding Sig Op, then corrected myself with ACISS, and she asked me where all this ACISS stuff was coming from. She had heard nothing other than...

    BMQ - St. Jean - March 2011

    Thanks, I did search before posting, using the Google site:army.ca search, and no dice.  As for asking a recruiter, I suppose I could, and will if I get similar dates, however at this point in time it has absolutely nothing to do with me, and even when it does, its not like I'm about to say...

    BMQ - St. Jean - March 2011

    Ill sneak a quick question in here, with leaving march 5th, and the course starting the 17th, what does one do for those 12 days? Do you get kitted out then? Are there any classes to attend? Do you start getting paid when you arrive, or not until the course starts? Are you allowed to attatch...

    Anxiety/OCD/meds (merged)

    What 89Sharp said, for most people. However if you've moved to Canada from elsewhere, or have lived outside the country for 6 months+ (i believe), then the background check section of your application can take quite a bit longer. For me, after i did my CFAT/medical/interview, roughly 2weeks...

    Question re: inactive file

    The thing that has me concerned is if they are closing fully completed file (i myself have finished every aspect of the application process) and telling those applicants to try again next year, will it not be a neverending cycle? I applied at that end of march 2010, completed all the steps by...

    Application Process Samples [2003 - 2018]

    Updated: According to Stacked, the NESOP trade is full now, I've yet to hear anything official but we'll see what happens. I've already gone through 5 trades closing, and unfortunately I wouldn't be willing to settle on a 6th 'just to get in', so I may just 'wait and see' what happens.

    Another "Hey look I can run!"

    I'm not sure this post will provide any great benefit to those reading, I'm mostly just looking for some input on areas I could improve or if I'm pushing too hard. I'll attempt to keep this updated every week or so if there's any interest. For starters, I'll provide a little background on my...

    CFRC Vancouver

    I don't know if or how this would impact you, but I just had my CFAT/Medical and Interview completed in Kelowna by personnel from CFRC Vancouver. They said they were there on Wednesday as well, and I would imagine a lot of administrative stuff would have to go into setting up a remote testing...

    Question Regarding Trades That Aren't Open Till April

    Would it not be better to apply, complete the entire process, and be ready for a job offer, rather than wait to hear that a trade is open this week, and start the 2-6 month process of applying? Im applying for Crewmen, and even though it looks as though its closed today, by the time my...
