I really hope I can get the medical and interview done before April so I have a chance to get a job offer. Last year all my trade choices closed before I had a chance to get on the merit list.

Just curious how many others have  done this online application, and what his/her experience with it is.

So far I received an email stating that they received my additional documentation and that it would be reviewed and once reviewed I would be informed to the status of my application.

Shortly after that, my online account was disabled so I gave the Canadian forces Nation Recruiting Contact Center a call and because I had applied last year in Halifax so they have to wait for Halifax to send the old application to them. This is because your not allowed to have two applications in at the same time.

So for me once the CFNRCC receives my old forms they can review them. Also they told me they were a couple weeks behind when I called a couple weeks ago so I'm hoping for a call soon. Luckily for me time passes pretty quick because I have playoffs in the next few months.... hopefully, we just have to win  ;D

Last year it took one month to get a call for the CFAT, medical and interview. Although I had a rough break and broke my leg but they did let me write the aptitude test. It was funny I could barely get around. The Forces.ca site says that the online application is faster so lets wait and see 

Also KeoughJ once I get my drivers license I am putting my 3rd choice as Medical Technician looks like we have similar interests let me know how your application goes.

Absolutely! I don't have my full G yet, the appointment is booked for March 1st (I initially thought I was going to apply in April, but people on the board say the best time to apply is yesterday, sooo) I'm really hoping everything goes smoothly for myself and anyone on the board applying!
