Hey JP, Im curious about your BMOQ date here. On the CFLRS website, the BMOQ serials for July 2 are M0001E and M0002E. Both were added over a month ago and just runs for a month long. Are these serials for ROTP?
 
Just received my offer for ROTP- Civ U (Inf O). Thank you everyone on the forum for their help, especially Buck_HRA. I am glad to have found this community who shares their experiences so well and helps others out in such a kind way.

Kratz,
My bad, should've read through before I asked. Do you happen to know what the other serials starting in F and Q BMOQ's are for?

I originally applied for LOG DEO back in 2017. By the time I wrote the CFAT and got my files together, it was informed to be that the positions had been filled. I ended up closing my file around October only to reopen them in January (The CAF website said that they were hiring for LOG DEO again). This was an error and the positions were all filled. However, the CFRC informed me that I do not have to close my file so I kept it open and added other trades as well (ARMD and ARTY). I was chosen for further processing for the combat roles and took my medical and interview. Everything went smoothly except my VA on medical. Due to my sight, I did not meet the requirements for combat roles. By this time, the new fiscal year had started so I had placed LOG DEO as 1st choice, and SIG DEO as 2nd.

Now fast forward just a little, I had called the CFRC for an insight/opinion on my application (I asked how competitive my file is and if I had a good chance of getting a call). I was informed that my file is very competitive and that as a visible minority I may get a call due to the fact that Canada has to hire according to Employment Equity Act. I have also decided to remove LOG altogether and focus on SIG as trying to get in as a LOG DEO hasn't been working for me.

I decided to share my current progress as posts from others had helped me personally.
 
Just curious...I had my interview two weeks ago. The recruiter said I have met all the qualifications for NWO naval warfare officer. He said there were 25 positions available. Also said I would be waiting a few months. Should I call and check with the recruiting office regularly? What does it mean "competition listed"? How many months are considered a few...two, three, six??

Hi. NWO positions are currently only via DEO. Hang tight, you’ll get the call at some point
 
Try to get as much information from your RCs as possible, and keep yourselves informed from all sources. Best of luck to you all!

Hello all :

I heard from my recruiter on June 19 that I am on the competition list and that there was an ROTP selection on June 26.  I have not heard anything since then.

Do you think if I still have a chance to be selected/admitted to an ROTP-AEC this week or next week to join the BMOQ module 1 (5 weeks) starting on July 23 and the RMCC in Kingston on August 25? 

Have the CFRG already selected all officer cadets who will start the 1st year RMC from Aug 25?

If I am not selected for the 2018 RMC, what should I have to do? ( waiting for the next year ?)

Please give me your advice/comments about this.

Thanks.
 
Went to see a recruiter on June 29, and he said I was still comp listed, with 1 position left for my selected trade, so it was still possible to get a call.

There are still chances you have been selected, but slim to none. Honestly I suggest you just go down and talk to a recruiter about your file, he'll give you up to date info on your application status.

I can't answer your other question, good luck.
