Hi,
Yes this is another personal story. My name is Pascale and I am from Shawinigan, Qc. I applied to be an aerospace controller in October 2009. After a week I applied, I did the aptitude test, the interview and the med test. I did very well during the interview. The man said I was one of the best he heard (I was very proud), but he must wait for the medical results.
The medical test was very complicated. I had very very bad eyes so the med. tech. highly recommended me to get the laser eyes surgery as soon as I can. I also have an allergy to mussel and I had asthma when I was a kid. I never had asthma crisis. 7 days after I met him, I got the eyes surgery. For the allergy, I did the needle test. I have a slight allergy to mussel but I don’t need an epipen (the man at the CFRC said that they don’t accept anyone with an epipen). After, I did the methacholine test for asthma. The result is: I don’t have asthma but I have slight asymptomatic bronchial hyperactivity and I don’t need medication (I didn’t have medication before).
After waiting 6 months (because of the eyes surgery), I went back to the CFRC a week ago. They said I have 70% to be accepted.
Next Friday, I will do the blood and urine tests.
So this is my story.
Sorry if I make mistakes, English is not my first language.
