avn red forever?

[Fatmike_011]

Anyone goin through the recruitment process know how long Avn is gonna be a red for, as in how many people there hiring over the years to come, thanks

I was told They aren't hiring AVN for a while, so I had to interview for something else or I could wait and see if anything opens up

Really?  When did you apply?

 

[stevea32]

I was told that on Tuesday of this week, I interviewed for ACS Tech yesterday because they couldn't tell me how long I would have to wait for AVN to open up again

 

[Fatmike_011]

I thought they were crying for people, maybe just because of the delay in Borden. So i guess its not red right now.

ACS seems like a good trade too, lots of good tickets after the military.

Yep, ACS will get you further in the civy world than AVN will.

I can see how AVN would be red, borden has been full of AVN's for a few years now, you only need so many.

How about AVS?

You can or can't see how AVN would be red?

I'm only assuming that its red because Borden has been full for the past few years with AVN techs going through the system. After this tech generation period is over I can see how they'd slow down recruiting techs as AVN's. You only need so many in the CF.

Does anyone really know what they mean by "RED".  Is it no one in no one out, or just no one out,  Thanks

 

[belka]

I believe it means that when you show up to the recruiting center, you'll have to choose something else other than AVN. I haven't been to a recruiting center in years so they might have changed their color system. Lets just assume that red=stop which equals no one allowed to join as an AVN.

RED means a distressed trade in severe need of personel.

 

[meni0n]

I'd add that there is a certain percentage of people allowed out. If a trade is red, I believe they allow 0.5% out. But it is possible to get out as I just went from a red to a green trade.

Did you not read that "Red" indicated a "distressed Trade";  NOT a "Closed" Trade.  You have it bass ackwards.  It means that they are recruiting for these Trades, and not allowing people leave that Trade.

i act as liason between CFRC in our area an my ATO...it's open, its closed, its open, its closed..until apr 1 AVS was 'more' open, meaning they needed more in distress..lol...AVN was open last week...who knows what will happen next week.

 

[yoeun]

well lets hope its still open! I received my offer last week. (i accepted it of course)

I was really worried that i wouldn't get my SEP for my AVN course at Canadore college. Aldo supprized to know that it isn't in HIGH demand as i thought. When I was interviewed I was told that there was only 15 openings on April 1st.

Good luck

thanks to you actually. You sent me a text the day before and I called the recruiting center right away. From there i went and did an interview. Went by pretty quick. There was actually 2 guys from the recruiting center before me who had already recieved offers.

My RC called and asked me to switch to AVS because AVN is closed but i chose to hold out until they opened, kind of a let down because it's "closed until further notice".
I talked to them yesterday and there are now 8 spots for NCM SEP for AVN's. Maybe i can get a shot at that but by the time i get my application in for civy schooling those spots might be gone.... but ill try anyway.

I just heard from a friend trying to enrol that no more Avn's are being hired this year. If this is the case is the trade still not allowing People to OT or just so backed up on training, as i got out of Borden a year ago i know that place is packed with students, some people waited up to 6 months for a course.
