Probably any NCM trade with spots to fill....

I just got back from my recruitment centre to just touch base and I was told by my recruiting officer "you can be selected at any time for infantry as it is the largest trade in numbers. The selection dates for infantry occur all the time and are not necessarily on specific dates" . So I guess that doesn't apply for all trades but those of you applying for infantry, it sounds to me like you can receive an offer at anytime if you have been merit listed. So keep your heads up it'll happen!

Any idea when is the next pilot selection?

Your "recruiting officer" has no control over selections and yes there are specific dates.  However, there can be occassions when onezies or twozies could be selected on short notice.

Any idea when is the next pilot selection?

Probably sometime around the first week of Jul.

Wow! Thank you DAA for your quick answer. I believed that another selection will take place before BMOQ in May...

Called my CFRC today for an update on my application. Was told my references were called and that they're just waiting on some check to come back and I should be merit listed in the coming weeks, recommending that I should call in the next week and a half to see. Applied for ACISS and was wondering what the selections are like for this trade.

That's entirely possible for BMOQ (DEO Serial).  There may very well be openings available that would definitely need to be filled.

So short notice or as required selections could very well take place.

Glad to hear that! Thank you once again DAA!

Reading around these past few days I feel that there's a lot of FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt) on the recruiting forums.  I've been sitting on the merit list for the past year, looking at getting passed up for another selection (because it's already happened apparently) and having to re-do my interview and medical, but what else is there?  Reading and discussing it online until my head explodes or just keep waiting?

Don't worry so much about selection dates, just keep everything current and keep waiting, because in the end worrying about it will not change anything.

Spoke to someone about the priority list today, they said infantry is 4th on the list and theres nothing even close in regards to infantry selections. Right now the biggest priority is ROTP, just thought I should let you guys know.

Any word on when applicants merit list in April will be receiving a job offer or the selection time? Especially in regards to Infantry and NCM.

Had you looked back one measly page you would have come across this post by DAA

21 Apr,  there are no BMQ's scheduled to start in the month of May and the next one I think is like the first week of Jun.

My mistake I did look through this thread but must have missed it.

There are currently no scheduled time for Infantryman.  I "think" the only combat arms trade being selected (ie; 4 Apr and 21 Apr) is probably Artilleryman.  The rest are pretty much support occupations.

Calls for the 4 Apr selections should be going out this week.

Good luck!
