Initial contract is generally 5 years.  Unless the CF is paying for College or University. 
Then you are looking at about 2 1/2 years for every 4 semesters.
Usually at the 5 year mark, or even before they will give you the option to extend it to 25 years.

They do not contact you once you have been merit listed. 
I'm merit listed for ACS Tech, and found out in Jan when I called for the status of my application. 
Just keep calling.  I call at least once a month.  More now that I know I'm merited.  :nod:

Thanks. I won't be going to college/uni/tech school for my trade, so I don't think I have to worry about that.
Someone said something about the initial contract being 4 years for a CBT ENGR, which sounds good to me.

As for the merit list, I ended up calling to find out I had been merit listed a few days after my medical/interview.

Now I'm just waiting on that phone call :) However, I'll be calling at least once a month to check up on my file.

Just a note: Since AVN and ACS Tech are not accepting applications at this time I am only being processed for Veh Tech. Also according to he recruiter, because I have already completed my CFAT and Medical I most likely won't have to re do them for round 2. Good luck everyone!  :D


Update! I got a call from the RC today asking if I could come in for an interview. Since I was in the middle of work however it has been scheduled for tomorrow by phone (of all things). I'm kind of nervous because I wasn't really expecting a call so quickly! Just goes to show you should never assume things... you know what they say  :facepalm:

An interview over the phone? Yikes! I'm not sure how I'd feel about that, but good luck! ;D

I don't wanna break your heart... but you cannot be merit listed until after all steps are completed... medical cfat interview background check etc. Because the "merit" list is a ranking of best candidate to the one that just made the bar. I was told that too until I found out I wasn't.

No worries about breaking my heart , if you go back a page or two, you'll see that I have completed all of the steps and that I am merit listed.

Thanks for you concern though :P

Hey, does anyone know if you can still apply in person in the Hamilton/Toronto area or if all applications must be done through the CFNRC (online)?
 
My understanding is that it is 100% online... Once you apply online you will be contacted if the job is open and if you qualify. My suggestion go to the CFRC and speak with them and find out if the jobs you wish to apply too are forecasting to be open.

This one is 100% online:  http://worldoftanks.com/

For The Canadian Forces, one will have to actually speak with people and visit a CFRC.

GW it seems that the CFRC have changed the process.. they admit its not great but they said what can you do. CFRC no longer accept any applications at the local level. You apply online then if you qualify your file will be sent to your local CFRC and then they contact you to get the ball rolling. But you still go in for information etc... just cant apply in person anymore...
 
EDIT: Retracting my post as I realize my Recruitment process is probably much different in Ontario then Saskatchewan.

Did you apply online or in person? I am also from Halifax and I went to apply in person around the beginning of January but the recruiter told me to apply online. My application hasn't even been reviewed yet. This online application is driving me crazy. I would have much rather applied in person.

Does anyone know how long it takes for CFNRCC to review applications? If you apply in person don't they review it as soon as you give it to them.

I originally applied online and i found it to take quite a while, so I went to my local CFRC and re applied in paper. One note though; what held up my online application is that currently the CF is only processing applications with a PP level of 4 or higher, 3's or less will not be processed till April, I was only at a level 3 on my online application but after talking to my local recruiter we changed some things on my application and it raised my level to a 4 so my application is currently being processed. You could be in the same boat as I was best bet is to call up Northbay and find out.

Yeah I know, I couldn't believe how quick it was.  Especially after reading some cases of it taking a year or more. 

Thanks, and good luck to everyone else that is waiting!
