Application Process Samples [2003 - 2018]

[Habs]

Ken / Habs, congratulations to you both and the best of luck.
Here's hoping I'm not far behind you.

Thanks! My Sergeant actually told me I most likely would NOT be going away this summer, and a week later, he calls me to tell me I'm going away!

Just goes to show nothing is set in stone, and things can change very fast. Goodluck, and hopefully you get in soon!

I just got off the phone with a Cpl from the Montreal RC. I was offered a position as Combat Engineer!!!

I can't explain how relieved and happy I am that my application has made it this far so quickly.

I was only expecting a call in August as for the information I was given by many, but as always, things change and positions open up!

Good luck to everyone in the process.

I applied a year ago first for ROTP, but didn't make it. Applied again this year, but was advised to go through some Reserves training to get some experience and stand a better chance in the ROTP selection pool. I'm off to basic training in less than a week, and once that is completed, I'm putting my name in again for ROTP component transfer (Army to Navy) where I will hopefully be accepted.

Just thought I would let you know that the board selection for MSE-OP is July 3rd. I was told also by the Kingston RC that the trade is closed to any more applicants due to the already pending applications that would fill the spot. So you still might have hope.
Was your interview and merit listing in May for MSE-Op?

Good luck to you!

I'm not the excitable type, but I've got to admit it was a pretty great feeling to receive the phone call this morning. As anyone can tell from my post-count, I've been a hardcore lurker on this site, reading pretty voraciously since I found the site in July 2011. A huge thank you to this site and everyone who contributes to it - I gained a great deal of information on here that prepared me for every step of the process so far.

Kudos to you Tristan. Which unit will you be joining?

B.M.Q.: 

I went to the recruiting centre today, just to make sure they had my cellphone number so they can get a hold of me more easily, and was told that I have been Merit Listed. ;D

I was also told that selection for Traffic Tech is next week, and the other two will be in August, with Combat Engineer being first. I have to admit I am pretty excited to finally be at this point in the process.
