My wife and I are both recent recruits, I graduated BMQ in Dec 11 and she in Apr 12.  I am posted to Meaford and she is in Borden, both of us sitting on PAT (or PRETC) waiting for our QL3 courses.  We also still maintain our apartment in the west end of the GTA where we live on weekends.  Until...

I had the same sort of phone call about a week and a half before getting an official offer, and manged to speak to my file manager afterward.  He explained that when we spoke, I'd been selected but they still had to finalize a course date, and won't be specific until that was set in case the...

Confirmed...it stands for "Priority of Processing", and it's as a result of the small numbers being recruited.  Your file needs to meet a certain threshold with regard to the items Sample2K7 mentioned or it simply won't be processed further.  Congrats on bumping it up!

Got a cheap G-Shock, won't look back and won't shed a tear if it's lost/broken. :) Thanks again!

Loud and clear...quit being a cheapass and spend a few bucks on the Wal-Mart special.  ;) Thanks for the input, guys!

Even with the red warning message above (rise from the dead, necro-post! :)) I really don't think this question warrants a new topic.  I have a perfectly good analog watch I would be happy to use (and certainly prefer over digital), but as with many analog watches there is no alarm feature. ...

Got the official offer about a half-hour ago...I'll see you on the 17th for swearing in as well!

Just got the confirm...starting Basic 05 September 2011, coming for Infantry. Could not be happier at this moment...  ;D

As an update...the recruiting sergeant had advised that my wife send him an email to confirm that her file had been merit listed, and she'd received no reply as of yet, so decided to give him a call this afternoon.  Good news is she has indeed been merit listed, and he did comment as to how...

Having just completed the application process (Reg F) and been merit listed, I can confirm (for my application, anyway) that there was no blood/urine draw during the medical. Having spent a significant portion of the time after the CFAT filling out the "What drugs do you have experience with"...

For what it's worth, you shouldn't worry about RMS Clerk closing before you're able to update the CFRC next week.  My wife has just been merit listed for RMS Clerk, and all signs (and info from her recruiting sergeant) point to selections being made sometime in the fall.  We had confirmation...

My wife just got word, her medical has been approved by Ottawa, so all that remains is for her file to be merit listed! I've also updated the date of my merit listing, it was approved by the file manager on the 13th, but apparently with the clerks in Toronto being on an "operational exercise"...

Could not agree more with your second point, was thinking the same thing as soon as he brought the point up.  It's not just the politicians or the system that's broken, it's the underlying acceptance of the status quo by the majority involved.  It's a bipartisan problem that cannot be solved...

Just to quickly update, I have received confirmation from the recruiting sergeant that my file has been merit listed.  Now just a matter of waiting (some more!).

Applied for Infantry NCM, and did excatly as Mudshuvel...suit, tie, the works.  The first thing the Sergeant said to me when he walked up was, "Glad to see someone taking this process seriously". So no, a suit/tie/jacket is not necessary, but it's a job interview...it's never going to hurt, and...

Thank god those posts came in...I had typed and posted a reply to his question only to find when it was posted there was no indication of the post I was replying to!  Glad I'm not going nuts (or on drugs ;))

Wow...not sure what I was replying to.  Disregard.

I've been told to both call and email my recruiter tomorrow to make sure it's been done, so hopefully I don't run into the same issues!
