Do you know if the board meets to make decisions on all officer positions, or just nursing specifically?

 

[Ayrsayle]

ABC - Searching is your friend; this question has already been answered elsewhere.

Selection for specific trades is done at either the local or national level, ill let you search and find out what nursing and your own occupation fall under.

Here's hoping!

My wife just got word, her medical has been approved by Ottawa, so all that remains is for her file to be merit listed!

I've also updated the date of my merit listing, it was approved by the file manager on the 13th, but apparently with the clerks in Toronto being on an "operational exercise" wasn't actually listed until the 20th.  Ah well!

*EDIT* My wife just received a message from my recruiting Sergeant (she'd emailed him as he seemed to respond more quickly than hers does).  Apparently her recruiter is out of the office for a few weeks, so he confirmed what medical had said (that her medical was approved) and is taking it upon himself to ensure her file is merit listed.

He was also nice enough to confirm in the same message that my file was still active and Infantry is still hiring, which is certainly good news.

Hi Richi,

The AVN postions are selected at the Recruitment Centre as it is not National Selection. Did they tell you that you didn't rank very well?

Mentor-shuvel

The recruiter told me that it was a national selection, and of the 17 positions left I was around 30. Too add to that I had vehicle tech on my application and was interviewed for that position as well, when I went in to the recruiting center I found out it was pulled off my file because I did not have gr 10 advanced math.

Needless to say but it's kind of frustrating I was not told that at the beginning of my application when the my transcripts were reviewed. However I should have been more thorough with my application.

- I completed my medical yesterday and was informed that it takes about a week or so for the file to make it back from the WO to the CFRC.  They estimated another 2 weeks to conduct the reference checks over the phone, so I'm hoping to be merrit listed before the end of July.

That sucks man, just wondering, why the long gap between Interview and Med/Aptitude? I'm guessing your "PT" test was a redo of your medical?

Sorry to hear, I had the exact same happen to me back in early June. Mind you, you've been waiting since 2 years longer.

When I originally applied in 2008, they booked my medical while they were doing my credit/security check. I also went in for an interview in 2008, and that was when they brought my financial issues. 
Such a biatch though, so close.
I've got some serious soul searching to do now, move on with my life, or hold out for another year. Decisions, decisions.

I originally applied for the reserves back in November of 2009 as an EME Officer. I had all my appointments booked and the freeze hit. This January a position opened and unfortunately I missed it again. I have chosen to do what I truly wanted and go RegF Construction Engineering Officer. I’m working in the construction industry and also on a master’s degree so I'm going with the flow and waiting for future appointments. Good luck to everyone. Don’t let anyone or anything discourage you and stay focused on your goals.
