Can confirm mine took <2 months. I was initially uncertain about whether I'd need to provide more info but it was all clear.

My medical in the YYZ FIR took 6 weeks. Definitely check up on yours. I think they said if they needed to contact you it would be done through the Canada Post electronic communications platform (I don't recall exactly). I'd make sure there haven't been any communications to you through this system t...

I’ll see you in Feb for IFR! Yes, but not until april! I am finishing my degree right now and asked if I could start later. They (very graciously) allowed me to start on april 4th, after my degree finishes. So lucky and exciting! If you are interested, get in touch with me and maybe we could study ...

I did my medical the third week of November. Literally as soon as I got off the phone with nav canada I searched the nearest CAME and booked an appointment. I've also apprised nav canada of the situation. Yea now all we can do is just sit and wait. It's good that Nav Canada is aware of all this. Ho...

From what I was told by the doctor who did my cat2, if he deems it eligible to be sent out then you will be receiving a certificate from TC regardless. It just takes forever apparently. The sooner you do it, the better it is all around. I also sent an email to nav canada just to keep them abreast o...

... even recommend going to get your medical done before getting an offer to help with the wait times. This is probably the best advice I have seen on this forum. A CAT2 medical with ECG costs $250 in the New Brunswick area. I would probably get one, if I were in a new wanna be's shoes, as soon as ...

During the bootcamp in Toronto they mentioned how TC is very slow in getting medicals out. They said that Nav understands this and will allow you to attend basic without the medical card. However, controlling live traffic is 100% not going to happen without a physical medical card. They said to bug...

I'm not sure at what point they want you to have a medical in hand Once you get to the specialty specific course is where I would think you will need a medical as you have breaks in the course where you go on the floor and actively or at least try to actively apply what you have learned before goin...

If it came close to limits, there’s a good chance the RAMO will want more information from a specialist. You’ll hear from them either way. Depending on what specialist you need to see and what kind of tests you’ll need to do, that can really hold you back in getting your medical. For example… needi...

I was at my CAME's recently for a category 2 medical assessment as I'm starting training in 2023. However, reading about how long it takes to hear back from Transport Canada, I'm beginning to wonder how strict TC is with issuing the licenses? All of my tests fell within the standards, but I recall t...

Transport Canada sucks for getting medicals out, few guys have waited over 9-12 months to get it. Nav Canada is aware of this and will let you start basic training without the physical medical. However you do need it before you are allowed to control live traffic. So keep bugging Transport Canada f...

It looks like recruiting for Spring 2023 at YYZ is done. If they continue with the usual trend, the next course will likely be in Fall 2023.

I just received the eligible for offer status at YYZ (while it's a different FIR their practices are likely similar) and they told us that courses for fall or winter 2022 are full. For courses beginning in winter or early spring 2023, I was told we should expect to hear back about an offer prior to ...

It's now been over 5 weeks since I submitted my interview and still no response. I got an email from the Modern Hire platform about how their servers were offline then back online again (?). Wondering how long it's taken other people? I've seen that it can take more than the advertised 4 weeks for ...

When you completed your On demand video interview did you get an email from Modern Hire confirming it was submitted ? I did not get any email verification- it just showed submitted and said “an email will be sent to the hiring manager” or something like that. I’m asking because today an email went ...

Wait are we talking about the bootcamp before or after the interview round? I did my interview 3 weeks ago (they told me 4 weeks for results) then it will be a 2 day boot camp afterwards. 8-12 weeks is the wait afer the half day assessment to get an offer or get rejected. Start dates are late fall ...

Even the interview part changed between 2021 and 2022. I got interviewed around the end of 2021, and it was a live panel of interviewers. By May 2022, this interview has now switched to prompted computer interviews where you read the question on your PC and your answer is taken and recorded, no liv...

Wait are we talking about the bootcamp before or after the interview round? I did my interview 3 weeks ago (they told me 4 weeks for results) then it will be a 2 day boot camp afterwards. The process appears to now be an asynchronous interview, ~4 weeks for results, then a 1/2 day boot camp rather ...

That's a long wait indeed. Hopefully, they squeeze in a few more boot camps in the next few months for those courses as well.

I just did my interview last week and we haven’t heard back on results yet. They said up to 4 weeks for that so my guess is there will be another round of assessments coming up 1-2 months from now. Ben-YYZ, may I ask when you did your FEAST? You're the person who got the email saying you passed ATC...

150 seems steep to me. I've heard 120ish for FEAST then 40ish for boot camp. At my FEAST at YYZ they said they've been having <120 showing up so it could be an even smaller pool at bootcamp. Good luck and let us know how it goes! Yea I have to agree, 40 sounds like a more reasonable number, so mayb...

Pretty much what my interviewer said as well, thanks. I guess I will just go and see! Anyone else here get an invite and scheduled to go? Me! I am excited and really hoping I will pass. But even if I don’t, after almost 3 years in the recruitment process it will be nice to have an answer one way or...

Thanks so much! Ended up getting the interview so fingers crossed I pass this step! Did they email you the interview invitation right after the email that you passed FEAST? I'm not at YWG but as far as I can tell my region hasn't sent out any interviews since passing the most recent FEAST tests at ...
