    Joining the Army

    You can't - not on the form.  The interviewing officer advised that I could interview for my third choice and if there were any other open trades I was interested in we could do the interview for them that day too - or I could come back to do the interview another day.  Like I said - I was...

    Joining the Army

    I interviewed that day on my third and fourth choice... I had been wavering between two Navy and two purple trades - the Navy trades closed that day so my decision was invariably made for me.  I'm heading to BMQ on Feb 20th and EXCEEDINGLY happy with the end result.

    Joining the Army

    In all honesty - you should probably head to the recruiting office first and ask them these questions.  The level of difficulty to get into the military is different for EVERYONE - if you spend time reading the recruiting posts you will see some people having rolled through the process within a...

    3 hours notice?? LMAO! thanks for the heads up...  :D From my enrollment experience, the NCM and Officer trades are two completely different files as are the NCM-SEP vs the direct entry trades.  Other than perhaps a paperwork nightmare I'm not sure why they don't allow more than one file to be...

    LOL I know your type - 'cause I'm just like you ;).  I struggle with over analyzing EVERYTHING until I know beyond a doubt the correct answer too.  ;D  I figured you have used Pilot as an example - but the comment about having to re-assess your desire for the position if you felt you 'wouldn't...

    I think that perhaps you may be over analyzing and trying to *out-think* the possible competition and the CF.  First - It doesn't really matter HOW many people apply - if 50% of them don't pass the medical or CFAT or interview, then that's 50% of the competition gone - then what's not to say...

    Application via Contact Center vs. RC

    Well, I would contact your local recruiting center anyway - the recruiter also mentioned to the fellow that the apps stay in North Bay until the trades you applied for come open, and then the apps get sent to your local RC for processing.  Of course, in order to start good habits - I would just...

    Application via Contact Center vs. RC

    I was at the recruiting center in London yesterday and one of the people at the desk did in fact advise an infantry hopeful that in order to apply to the CF they had to start with an online application at this time.

    Regular Officer Training Plan (ROTP)-RMC 2000 - 2018 [Merged]

    Thanks so much for your post Heff - It was very timely for me.  In pursuing my NCM enrollment (I am now Merit Listed) I was informed that based on my CFAT scores I qualified for Officer trades and on a few of my visits to the recruitment office, the question was asked of me why I wasn't applying...

    Time for a wee update I guess. :)  Thought I had everything sussed for the medical today - went for an optometrist appointment last week and had the vision form filled out, but apparently being in the 40+ age category I also have to see my family doctor and have blood work etc done.  (found out...

    MILTARY DRILLS, PT - "Get 'Er Done": Seriously???

    MILTARY DRILLS, PT - "Get 'Er Done": Seriously???

    What has me concerned is this isn't the only ad he has up there... he's looking to help *yummy mummy's* and build a *bonding relationship* with his clients.  I'm truly hoping that he's grown up some since his stupidity... or that people are savvy enough to actually use references before allowing...
