So it took a month to the day from when I passed them vision test to get the call or about three months from when I first walked in the door. And while that month seemed to drag on forever, it doesn't seem so bad looking back. The time it took between my first walking into the recruiting centre and my interview/CFAT/medical would probably have been be a lot less if not for the Christmas break and the renovations at the recruiting centre in that intervening time.

Also: First post! Huzzah!

So...Yay me.  Got the call today.

Its been a very painless process from start to end, and while there were a few small hold ups, things went very quickly.  I am actually really impressed by the quality of people that I dealt with at the Calgary CFRC - a very high caliber of people acting as the first point of contact.

BMQ starts March 23!

Nice smooth process,I'm hoping I can get on that course date as well, just got to keep my fingers crossed!

It has been a long but smooth process. All dates are apx. but should be close the the actual ones. I did experience a couple of set backs along the way. Waiting for my Degree to arrive along with a wicked cold I had cost me 2.5 to 3 months.

I am quite excited for BMOQ to start!

Congrats XBoxhunter!

Bingo. Now focus on your interview. I`d suggest going over and taking the time to fill out that interview prep form they gave you at the CFRC -- it is worth the time. Also do a few mock interviews with your mother/girlfriend/friend.

Good luck!
