Dunno why its taking soo long.

 

[stealthylizard]

HaZarD SFD, give them a call.  Seeing as how there is no first contact, it would be in your best interest to do so.

 

[HaZarD SFD]

Called and he said its in ROC or ERC or something like that to be looked at then I would recieve a call for my Aptitude test.

 

[stealthylizard]

You still have a long way to go then.  I am stuck in the same step as you are, but I was told that I should receive a call in about 3 weeks.  Just be patient, the ERC takes quite awhile.  In the meantime, continue getting in as best of shape as you can.  Trust me, you will need it.  Or try to find a book on the history of the various regiments in your trade, and read up on them, as that will be one of the questions for your interview.

 

[HaZarD SFD]

What is the last step before doing the aptitude test?

 

[stealthylizard]

The aptitude test is usually done at same time as the interview, and most likely your medical as well, depending on where you are in relation to the nearest recruiting center.  So basically the ERC is the last step before the rest of it.

Well the recruiters told me it could happen quickly,
but 15 days from application to offer,    I never expected that.  very cool

 

[stealthylizard]

I think I have to move to a city with a recruiting center, lol.  I guess with my previous service though, it would take longer regardless, just because they have to dig through the archive catacombs.

 

[Keebler]

wow 15 days...amazingly fast. Congrats!!

Heh, I don't actually live in the city, but I'm only about 60 kilometers away, so not too bad. 
Yes, mine wouldn't have gone so fast if they'd had to check anything out like that. No medical problems either which I understand can really slow the process down.

wow 15 days...amazingly fast. Congrats!!

Yes it was, my family and friends are a wee bit shocked that I'm already in. Thank you and congratulations to you as well.
