;D Ok, new update in my quest. I have an interview upcoming at the recruiting centre! There are 2 pos for CT(U) and 3 applicants. I figure that is ResF....as DE and RegF get different number of positions. Was not expecting this as everything was looking like no positions for this year (FY...

OK, Latest update; I found out I've had a broker for a little while, but my CC failed to mention that to me/felt I didn't need to know. It took getting through to someone in Ottawa that could tell me that they have my file and am in the system. The bad news is they said there were no positions...

In a general sense that is def. true and makes a good point. However, I am and have been filling a full-time class B pos. from  the start of my reserve time. I have no requirement to parade on a regular basis as my current position is operational. All of my training, less one course was in the...

I hear you. And I understand they are no longer civies. They've put in their time, and are now tried and tested. My point is just, it doesn't seem those of us already in the system get the same considertation as what amounts to a "new guy". We will all have to do the same training in the end I...

Pinged off of a couple people who know people in the know, for the trade (make sense?). Have literally been told that my suspicions are correct. DND in their infinite wisdom have made it easier for flat face, untrained, no background civi off the street to apply, process and get an offer in...

I was able to find/view the SIP today. Things don't look too promising.  :facepalm: Can some of you folk do me a favor and retire/get promoted and open some cap space at the bottom.  :nod:

Hey Eye In The Sky, I do get all of that. Like when I mentioned I was told there's only 2 spots/yr for CT(UT) from PRes. I think you're eluding to the transparency side of things I was talking about. Correct me if I'm wrong. What I'm saying is that it'd be nice if someone could give a clear...

It'd be nice if I had a broker. Here's my story. Put in my CT/OT through the online application in June '13. Got an email from D MIL C7 in October saying I needed to be sure my MPRR/MED etc was up to date and that MCpl **** was my POC at my unit to ensure all this was done. But they sent it to...

I'm sure there's a link somewhere that you can view what/where positions are available. I may very well have been geting brushed off by the staff in Ottawa since I went directly to them. Though I was trying to sort out a clerical error on their end. Luckily, by nature of the place where I...

Yup, I think we're the only active people over there.  :nod:

I thought they had closed the trade to DE's. Oh well. I'm coming from ResF. Which to me is a bit crazy, that they'll take DE's over a CT/OT who already has 8yrs military experience (RegF and ResF). Has BMQ done, and so could start the trades training right away. It'd be in the CF's interest and...

So I was just able to get some info. Though the info I got was not very reassuring. They have my application in Ottawa. The reason I haven’t heard anything else yet is because there were no positions available last year. IF there’s any new positions this year they will announce those in April...

Hi All, I've just signed up to this forum. I'm already part of AESOP lounge, but that site is all but dead. Less a couple of posts here and there. I'm in sort of a different spot than DE's and OT's in that I'm doing combined CT/OT. Since this is my first post, some background (not that any of...
