Hey guys -- I'm starting to be a bit of a regular on the recruiting forum. I know its hard to give an answer with absolute authority, and I am in almost constant contact with my local CFRC. I just like to here some chatter on here as well. I applied for ROTP but got fetched up in a medical...

Hey guys -- so I did not get picked up on the second round. I was told to hold out in case people refuse offers, which is cool, but for all intents and purposes, I am out of the running and will be doing DEO in a year and a half when I'm done my degree, or possibly a bit after that. I did...

To be completely honest, the reason why I am going for an NCM trade, is simply because I do not have even close to the amount of money to fund the last year and a half of my University education. If I am not picked up for ROTP, I intend to go in under a short term engagement, likely the minimum...

Hey everyone -- I'm thinking of doing a short term engagement as an NCM medical technician. I have my sights on Officer Trades right now, but I do not think I made the selection for my trades under ROTP... I should know by mid June how that worked out. My aptitude, medical, etc. is all good, I...

Hey -- I spoke with my File Manager last week. More info coming everyones way in about one more week -- I would say wait until Thursday or Friday to call your File Manager, and even then, I'm not sure if more will be released. Although on the other hand, your at a different spot -- I'm still...

Yea... it really only amounts to another few days of waiting, and hoping. At this point, either way that it goes I will be ok -- I just want a result so I can plan accordingly. I will do DEO when I complete my degree, but ROTP would be a much more convenient option.

Hey guys -- I spoke with my File Manager on Monday. It seemed like she had the results as well, but put me on hold for about five minutes, came back and said that she cannot release any information to me until sometime next week, or the following week, due to budget changes.

Congrats to everyone who was accepted! Hopefully I will hear back on Monday! If not maybe I'll give my CFRC a call since I will be off to Kingston for about a week to visit my parents and am currently in Halifax. For those of you who were accepted, did they tell you the deadline to respond on...

Thank you ScotiaGirl for the info. Cheers.

Its hard to believe that in the space of the next seven days, I will be finding out if all of the work and hoops I have jumped so far due to all of my fetch-ups during the application process and medical has paid off. I'm prepared to accept it if it is not a favorable ruling, but I'm really...

It is a good feeling when you feel as though they are working as hard as possible for you. A lot of people talk badly about the CFRC staff, and I would be lieing if I said I've only ever had good things to say about the work they do. I have been frustrated at times, but never with personnel...

~Armour Officer

Armour Officer~

Hey -- just got some pretty current info from a recruiter. Armoured Officer is full, but Infantry Officer has openings still. They could not tell me the number of offers left to give out for this trade since it changes so frequently, but this is good news for me. While my choices were Armoured...

Just received an update and thought I would share. A recruiter told me just now that Armoured Officer has no openings at this time under ROTP. Infantry has multiple openings at this time, but (obviously) they could not release an exact number at this time as it changes so quickly. Best of luck...

Hey -- just noticed your post now. I'm currently applying for ROTP -- waiting to hear back from the second selection board, but was advised by my file manager to "be prepared for a no" since I did not make the first round of selection because of a medical fetch-up that has been sorted. Halifax...

Hey guys -- first off I realize this is DEO Infantry 2010, and NOT ROTP Infantry 2010. Since you guys are talking about the SIP for Infantry, has anyone heard anything about numbers, etc. at this point? I am trying to get in under ROTP, and I'm operating under the assumption that if a trade is...

Prairieboy -- Sorry to hear that, and I hope something works out for you... I'm sure a large number of people declined offers for combat arms trades, or will have declined by the time the second round sits. I'm looking forward to May. Any news is good news for me at this point, I just want to...

Has anyone heard anything back yet from the second round of selections? If it isn't this week, it should be soon. Cheers.

Hey -- as a fellow University student, and some one currently waiting for the call for ROTP, but still on Civi Street, I do not think anyone inside or outside of the uniform can look down on your reasoning to join up. One of the mandates of the Reserves is to provide trained personnel... if you...
