Well, as my file progresses, I have been handed my next date and should get all the details tomorrow morning about this next phase. Next NOAB dates in Esquimalt, BC will be from October 14th -19th. Anyone else scheduled for this yet? Also, I know some of you reading this have seen the NOAB...

Unless somebody made a typo...(this directly from the Directorate of Pay Policy and development site) "Pay Level A - ROTP (former CBI 204.2111 & 204.2151) B - OCTP-NFS (former CBI 204.2113 & 204.2153) C - DEO (former CBI 204.2114 & 204.2154) D - UTP-NCM / OCTP-FS (former CBI 204.2112...

Yes exactly, no pay for such but your air fares, food, lodging (everything from A to Z) while you are out for NOAB is covered. As for your pay after, it goes by rank of course. Check out the DND website for pay scales and regulations upon when you receive rank upgrades etc as you complete phases...

Got my answer from the recruiting office in Montreal this morning actually. Took a few phone calls but here it is for those similarly interested... Next merit board for MARS Officer sits on Sept 13th for pre-selection. After which all chosen candidates will be given the dates of 2nd week of...

I am currently merit listed and waiting on my NOAB and BOTC dates for Navy MARS officer. I wanted to know if anyone else was also waiting or might have been given future dates already for the same training? Here's to hoping sooner than later! Thanks!  :cdn:

He qualifies French Canadians as France French...such a common American bloop in their all knowing superior minds. In 1775 after the Acts which the Americans wanted to see fulfilled, namely the "one nation in North America", they invaded Quebec Province (renamed and under British rule since...

It should be left alone of course, but power and money hungry people won't leave it alone so we have to look towards the obvious fact that one of the countries will own it now, that's a fact. It's like people who wish war didn't exist in one form or another, it's a nice optimistic view on life...

Of course, I wasn't taking it out on recruiters or the people that work on the files in back, I meant like since there is no obvious pattern (because everyone is different in files, tests etc) it is hard to know whats going on. The people back there have my praises of course. With the way...

Heh...it's funny how it goes though that some people start and finish the process within 6 months and other like us are stuck for almost a year or over a year even with no visible problems to our files. I'm keeping hope of course that somewhere in the near future I finally get my NOAB dates and...

Recruiting Center: Montreal Regular/Reserve: Regular Officer/NCM: Officer Trade Choice 1: MARS Trade Choice 2: N/A (Used to have Pilot here before It was removed when it closed in April, but re-opened after) Trade Choice 3: N/A Application Date: July 17th 2006 First Contact: July 19th 2006 CFAT...

When I went through in a very similar story, the 6 months period stands. This gives the time to your unit to filter you out of the system and archive your files in the proper places. It takes quite a bit of time to get your files back together and in order after you decide to do this, so trust...

Sorry for the long upcoming post. Only for those not faint of heart. Please read on and let me know if your recruitment story was a horror as mine so far... It all started back in July 2006. I had just left the army after my IE and my return from Afghanistan (to go back to school), when it hit...

Most combat units, including infantry, do have living in accommodations or barracks, in one form or another. My old barracks room was about 110 a month all included (except food, cable, internet which you pay for yourself if you want it) and being senior we got our own room. There are various...

Of course there will be living cost differences anywhere you go for on base housing in Canada. I suggest you contact the base and inquire directly for the current costs of PMQs in your desired area.

I have experience in this matter. I originally was armored and when I started my BMQ and other courses I was told that being from Quebec I'd be posted to the 12th. When I got to my MOC training, we were told we were all going to be RCD in Petawawa. Now from this, they ultimately decide where...

I've been looking for this document for a few days. Awesome thanks!  ;D EDIT: Concerning my problem, is still waiting to figure out if I will "initially be granted higher rank, Incentive Pay Category, or Time Counting for Promotion in recognition of my previous service in the reg. force" which...

I would dare to say it depends on your army job. I don't know how long MOC training lasts for all the other jobs, but the MARS officer training is BOTC, then second language training (if needed) then NOTC for 12 months and then about 24 months ship side OJT to get a "Bridge Watchkeeping...

Whoa awesome!! I'll read all the info right now. If you guys have anything else let me know, but this looks pretty complete.

I applied to become a MARS officer, Navy and I have done all tests and medicals related, the only thing left I was told was a meeting with a Naval Board in Halifax to determine my aptitude to the job or something? Did anyone else go through this recently and know what to expect or interesting...
