okay thanks

Hey just wondering. I did my interview yesterday and it all went great.  We spoke about getting an offer to join back and what would my salary be ( Captain didn't know if I was going to be paid as a Soldier 1 or 2 or Corporal ) We spoke about what the next steps would be.  He told me , I...

and trust me .... NOTHING is "a simple form" in the Canadian forces.  When I applied for a CT that's what they told me too ..... trust me , it's not true

It depends on a lot of things.  Depends on your current files.  If you simply want to CT or OT.  If you are already trade qualified.  If the trade is currently hirring.  ETC. But like I said , it can take ANYWHERE between a few months to a few years , sadly no one here knows the exact lenght...

that's the million dollar questions. Wait time can be ANYWHERE between a few months to couple of years. I personnaly know people that waited for 4-5-6 years ... And I also know people that CT in 6-7-8 months ....

what I really don't like is that when the Conservative party was talking about budget and that it would come up a bit higher than expected , everyone was yelling and calling them the worst party out there. Now with the liberals , every one that knows a bit about mathematics knows that most of...

Litterally EVERY course I went while in the reserve , there was a problem with the dates / timming / etc. I wasn't on that many courses : -BMQ -SQ -DP1 -Driver ( wheel ) -Recce Tech -PC Tech The ONLY one that was on the right time and everything was BMQ.  SQ : I got told on the 7th that I...

grats jattends un appel pour structure moi aussi :)

remember 1 thing , people at the recruiting center do have Quotas to fill .... which in the end , makes them a bit biased and might not be the total truth. When I joined the reserve they told me it was the best thing to do and as soon as I wanted I couldnt switch to reg Force and work full...

Going NCM prior to Officer might not be a bad choice as far as experience goes.  That way you will understand both side of the coin and the reality of both world. It is 2 totally different world , but as stated above, if you already doubt the choice you made, don't continue tht route.  Call your...
