greetings everyone and first, i'd like to thank everyone for the tons of useful information i've been surfing in this website.
so, i'm applying for Army Reserve and i've passed CFAT, Medical part 1 & 2, Interview, and reserve PT test. now what ?
MCC told me that i did very well in CFAT (he said not so well but ok in Verbal, and got all the Spatial and problem solving correct), medical part 1 & 2 done with no problem, WO who conducted the tests said my medical file (as well as everyone's else) will be sent to Ottawa for approval but he will send a recommendation to my unit as i did pretty well with no problem. Interview was mostly Yes/No questions and Officer told me i passed with no issue and was told that once they finish processing my application it will be sent back to my local reserve unit for further processing.
I got a call last Thursday from the Corporal handling my application in CFRC Halifax saying that i passed everything (CFAT, Medical, Interview) and that a quick background check will be conducted in Ottawa for my application because i have an immediate relative (oldest brother) living abroad, and she said this will only take a couple days.
now my questions are:
1/ would this "quick background check) have any effect on my application or how quick it processed?
2/ i've read from other members here that some of them were told by their respective local reserve unit of what positions/trade are actually available or vacant. the recruiter in my local reserve unit didnt seem to actually answer this question, he said "there is infantry, artillery, engineers, signals ....etc unit in Halifax"but never actually told me if any of these are currently looking for new recruits or not??
3/whats the next step in processing my application after passing all CFAT, Medical, Interview, whats next?
4/ now that its end of march, would i still stand a chance of hopefully start training during this summer for basic?
Thanks everyone in advance
