Hey all,
So after completing my online application and waiting for pertinent documents to come back such as my transcript, I went in to the Orangeville Recruiting Centre yesterday. I am in Orangeville for a two month period during the provincial election working on the IT systems so I decided to go there instead of waiting until after the election period is over.
I submitted my documents and was told by the recruiter that only the engineers were hiring in the Toronto area so I was a bit disappointed. However, I then talked on the phone to a gentleman that was handling my file since it was an online application and he told me that there were Infantry, Artillery and Armour reserve units in Toronto that needed people. So I am booked for my CFAT on Oct 25 in Mississauga and assuming all goes well from here on in it looks like I will be either with the 48th Highlanders or the 7th Artillery.
I was walking on a cloud coming out of there because I am one step closer to my goal. I am 37 and in decent shape but I have lots of work to do yet. I'm just really excited to be part of such a proud organization and tradition. Thanks for your time.
Scott
