Hurry up and wait! ;D

Don't worry about being hired, just prepare yourself to be the best candidate you can. Answer truthfully - you owe it to yourself. Things like shouldn't be faked, you'll just end up hating it.

1. I'm pretty sure they have contacted your current and past employers prior to BII. Once you go through the interview, you'll understand that - whether or not they called beforehand, they can do so afterwards. So in saying that, if it's not a conflict of interest, inform your place of work to...

I remember before heading to MPOAC, they made sure my interview and medical were up to date. They also needed a driver's abstract from me. But like Garb said, don't do the driver's abstract until they ask for it since it's only valid for a year from the requested date.

Private Pay incentive: Monthly pay during BMQ is 2,985.00. After Pension, income tax, supplementary death benefit, insurance, EI, PPIP, rations and quarters fees - Net pay for Married/common law is 1,529.26 and Single is 1,427.99 Like above: ROTP is 1,667.00. Net pay for Married/common law is...

Congrats to all guys and gals that received their offers :) Kinda jealous how frequent BMQ runs compared to BMOQ

Garb, as an MPO candidate, will I have any classes with MP candidates during BMOQ or Borden? or is my training only with other officer applicants only?

The CRC told me that the combination of your aptitude score, your interview score, and your MPAC/MPOAC score will attribute to how high you score in the competition list. I can't give you a general timeline, but here's what happened to me. I was denied enrollment because of a laser eye...

Don't be like me - Keep up to date with your CFRC. The only reason I didn't was because I was applying all over the place for law enforcement. Upgrade yourself wherever possible: Education, training, community service (networking), the likes of that stuff. Why wait on only the CF to accept you...

On completion of MPOAC, they informed my session that the CFRC will have the answer to relay back to you in approximately a week. Surely enough, I contacted them after a week and they did have the reply; so I suppose that should be the same for MPAC.

Garb, need a little insight on another situation now :c I was not able to enroll into the CAF yesterday because of a recent laser eye surgery; they said my enrollment will be postponed until 4 months post surgery (13 Nov) earliest depending on BMOQ dates. In November, my interview and medical...

These make a lot of sense. Although I'm disappointed that this is how it is, it's very understandable - sucks that members miss funerals, I don't think I could do that if it's immediate family though.

Hey garb and other members of this sub, I have asked the RC this question and is asking for contact information from CFLRS St. Jean to see if they can answer me; but I'm hoping you guys have some knowledge about a situation at hand. The letter of employment states a start date of September...

Haha, good news is - the offer was official! Some documents were lost in translation between the RC and HQ. I'm all set to go :D

So it turns out they need to make sure I'm a Canadian citizen and stuff like that. Any idea if this is truly the last step?
