Well holy moly- after more than 18 months I got the call yesterday for a conditional offer (pending a redo of my criminal record check which is a non-issue). I can't believe it. I'm overwhelmed by emotions. Thanks a lot to everyone on this board who has encouraged me or helped me in the recruiting process. I hope I can pay it forward in the coming years.

Woohoo!

 

[EngSteve]

Congrats, see you at BMOQ ☺

 

[kse.bolla]

Good day Everyone,

Just have a newbie question. I called recruitment centre for any updates regarding my application status and the Corporal, whom I spoke with, informed me to show up physically at the office and ask for a DUTY MCC available to speak to me about my application. Did anyone here had the same call or something similar?.

Thank you,

Kirk

If anyone can explain why they are pushing me through so quick it would be nice to know

I'd actually be interested in knowing why it's so quick for you as well. I submitted my application in late June, was contacted right away, did my aptitude test a couple weeks later and I just received an email yesterday telling me that my application has been approved for further processing and I should expect to receive a call for an interview/medical this week. I was expecting to wait a lot longer than I have so far. Not complaining whatsoever though!

How did you do on your interview?
