I applied to the CAF in November 2013 and have gone through all the steps and processes. I was told to sit tight and wait to see if I have been selected for a trade in November. So I have been check emails and phone messages since ending of October 2014 for any news and nothing. Then I checked my spam folder and saw that I had received an offer on October 20, 2014 that said I had 5 days to respond. The problem is that I didn't see this email until November 7, 2014. I immediately called the Recruiting Officer that sent the email and left a message and will also go in to the recruiting centre to hand in my sign acceptance form. Is it too late for or will I still be able to claim my spot because I have waited so long for this chance to serve Canada and I don't want to lose it like this.
