Yeah those CFAT are like a double edged sword. I had to rewrite mine because my previous CFAT math scores weren't high enough to go into the trade I was VOT requesting. I hate those timed word problems! I also didn't study hard enough (took it too lightly having been out of the maths for a long...

I would suggest adding a timeline requirement to the memo so that the CoC knows when this has to be passed to the BPSO. My CoC was fussy when it came to "Request for OT" they made me title it "Intent to apply for OT". It does make sense since you aren't asking permission from your CoC, you are...

I agree with you Eye. For the BPSO interview if needed but I can honestly say they did not ask me WHY I wanted to switch trades or my feelings as to how it would benefit the CF, I don't think they care about that, what I do believe they care about is what you have done/are doing that will...

You don't have to justify why it is beneficial to the forces. I am going with the fact that if an employee is happy or content in their work, their productivity, lack of sick days etc speaks for itself. If you feel the need to justify or come up with a reason in the memo, you could put something...

The problem with that format (at least what my fussy pants CoC had with it) is: you are not asking for a VOT, you are informing your CoC of Intent to apply for AVOT. Which in a way makes sense. You aren't asking them for one, you are telling them that you are starting the process.

Having had to piece bits of information from sources everywhere, I figured I would put in my most valued information learned in the VOT process. Feel free to add in. The most important: BPSO interview. This cannot be overstated. We aren’t permitted to talk about the interview, but what you...

Not a bloody clue.... I guess I will find out on Wed. Seriously though fast and furious is an understatement, but on the happy dance side, I got my message, passed my FORCE test and am Green and good to go for my new trade.

OMG Finally! Got my instruction message. Only 3 days to clear out, in, get uniforms etc hahaahhah!

For those folks here that didn't hear ANY word yet, I do feel for you. I do have hopes that perhaps due to the lateness some offers will still come through.

What is AUMB? Yeah I have a POC of some sort on the offer. I will wait until Monday (well Tuesday actually since I have Monday off) to shake down that tree if I haven't gotten it by 0700 on Tuesday. Right now I know the Sgt at our OR has enquired with that sed POC so I don't want to be too...

Well this is getting insane. I have our Sqn farewell BBQ today where they will fare well me but I still don't have that damn instruction message!!! I am beginning to wonder if something has gone wrong somewhere. I guess if I haven't heard anything by monday which is a total of 7 working days...

I have as of yet not received my instruction message. If I haven't received it by the end of the week I will start doing some digging.

I hear rumours of NDHQ but if given a choice or opportunity I would like to "mark time" with Station training here as I won't have to deal with downtown traffic or parking! Also be able to ensure one less thing to dag amber or red with when I am on course. When they send me to NDHQ I will ask if...

Holy crap, still waiting on instruction message.... it's kinda making me wonder if they received my acceptance. I know my Aircrew Air factor was granted on Monday (or thats when I heard that it was granted) but by the flaming balls of Hades can they just put me out of my misery? Correction: I...

Congrats Comms guy!
