Hello!
First time poster here, long time reader though. I've recently reapplied to the CF again, this will be my 4th application and my foot is down that I will accept this one. I applied first 5 years ago and did the CFAT and heath assessment and passed, but this was back when I was 17, I'm now 23. I had to back out of that application due to parental pressures. My other 2 applications weren't processed fully due to documentation "not being received", or lack of availability. This time though I'd applied with a college education, training up the yingyang, and job experience in the field I'm applying for, Med Tech.
I applied on the 14th and heard back the 18th that I've been selected for further processing. This leads into my first question. Does timing matter? I was under the assumption that I'd have to wait a month or 2 like my other applications... is this a good sign of a fast application process or just good luck so far? When I called they said it was priority trade which I thought strange.
Anyways, when I called my local RC I got the ball rolling. I alerted the recruiter that I've done previous applications and passed the CFAT for the med tech position several years ago. She said that's perfect and I should hear back in a week or so since she has to "research" my file. Second question, do I have to do the CFAT again, or the health assessment for that matter, since I've already completed both? I'm hearing mixed things about whether they keep stuff on file.. varying from 6 months to 10 years according to a currently serving friend.
My last question. I'm pretty sure it's not psoriasis, but recently the front portion of my scalp developed a few small patches of redness that sometimes flake if i pick at them. Will they not accept me into the CF on the assumption? It doesn't cause me any pain, discomfort or itching, other then some slight hesitation to get my head shaved heh.
Thanks for reading!
