Lord it‘s been a while since I posted here... First some history... then my questions.... hopefully someone out there will have an answer.. Last July, I submitted all of my paperwork for recruitment, got an interview, did the aptitude test, etc... I was signing up as a Sig Op officer under...

Groovy.... Thanks for the info, ErorZ and WIlly... now I hafta call my old recruiting center to see if my application file is still active...

I have a question... Once you have finished your QL3, do you get a say in where you get posted? My wife and daughter are in Edmonton, where my wife is working in a decent job. I would hate to have to up-root them to Pet... (that, and Edmonton Garrison is a 5 minute drive from my house) Also...

Well, I spoke with the Captain at CFRC today.. he offered me a job as a Sigs officer, with BOTP commencing Sept. 15... I declined. I need time to move my family and get them settled, but I told him that come the new year to notify me of openings, as I will be more than interested then.. So I...

Hey all.. I was relatively active on this board, had applied as a Sigs Officer and was waiting to hear when I went on vacation. That was about 4 weeks ago (June 19). I called the recruiting office on June 23, and they told me that all the spots had been filled, and I was rejected. I was...

To answer a couple of questions as best I can (I am currently waiting to hear from the officers board in this occ.)... Signals Officer (84) is the land designation and CELE (Air) (83) is the Air Force designation. What are the differences? Well, as I am not there yet I can‘t tell you for...

Awesome news Ralph!! Now if only my recruiting center will get there act together... called them an hour ago and the corporal sounded pissed... said that they hadn‘t heard anything...

Congrats Murph! I will let you all know as soon as I hear (or don‘t hear...)

The way it works for those with signing bonuses (bonii ?) is... There is the 9 year contract and a 4 year letter of understanding. If I leave the military for any reason in the first 4 years, I have to pay back the money they gave me (as far as I undersatnd). It is like the Army is trying to...

Marti is right. I didn‘t have my B.C when I dropped off my app, and they just said to bring it in later...

hehehe... CELEwife... My wife is going through the exact same thing right now.. :-) All of your info sounds correct, except I am not so sure with your point 2 (IAP/BOTP).. afaik, IAP/BOTP is still around. But then I may have some wrong info too... McG is correct about the terms of the...

That makes sense.. I guess I am just the one who cried wolf... I will be quiet now... :cool:

Well.. I am 26 years old, have lived in at least 8 different addresses (lived in residence during school), and I got the addresses for each and every place I lived. The key (for me, at least) was just remembering what I did over the past 10 years... (I looked at an old resume) Once I had an...
