[yamahaguitarguy]

hey guys I have a question about ranking of trades I selected. I am merit listed and now would like to be chosen for the trade I have on my #3 spot. Do you think I should call and get it switched to #1 or does it not matter? I know when you're merit listed your are eligible for all trades you picked so I suppose it probably doesn't matter?

 

[JoPelle]

Just a question about selection date.
My RC told me that I was merit listed and that the selection date for my trade was July 8th. Does that mean that they do the selection from July 8th to (...) or they do the selection this day and make the call during the rest of the week? Ive search on the forum but I havent found the answer to my question. Thank you

I was told that the selection date is usually done 45-60 days prior to the start of a BMQ serial and I know for this fall one course starts August 19th. What is the trade you are going in for?

Combat Engineer. That sheds some light on my situation also if that trade doesn't start choosing people until July 8th. My seconds choice is Combat Engineer.

Congrats! All the best in the infantry!

Thanks! It should be an interesting experience!

I know right? I was thinking hopefully I'd get the call before the new year. It surprised me that it happened so quickly! It seemed like it took forever to get my file transferred and then everything just flew by in a month. Thanks! Good luck with your application as well.

 

[Goodeman]

What regiment?

 

[Dlaws90]

What regiment?

I was told PPCLI, not sure if that will change. I was hoping to get a say in that decision. But I'm just glad to be in. So I suppose it will be Edmonton or Shilo afterwards.

 

[MikeL]

Did you ask for PPCLI, or just say you were open to any regiment?

If they offered you a position for Infantry NCM with regimental affiliation of PPCLI it won't change(unless you request a change later on).
