Hey everyone,

I was wanting to make a group for everyone in the Edmonton area so we can share our progress in applications, so we can make the waiting period seem shorter (hopefully :lol: ).
Timelines, assessments, training,... whatever point you are at around here.

I have applied on March 6th, 2017
Online test taken: March 6th, 2017, result: green light
I am currently waiting for an assessment in Edmonton that I hopefully get an invite for when the times comes.

How about you and your application?

Maya

I contacted the national recruitment centre and they said they are currently planning the spring session and to ask in a few weeks again, by then they will have more detail.

I haven't heard anything yet. I am strongly hoping for this week.

So they are doing two assessments? I wonder how many people are being invited overall.

Hey there's outflying8!!

Thanks for sharing your experience. I was curious about the timeline for the second interview and judging by your experience and its similarities to those of us on this particular forum, it looks like everything is relatively comparable.

Good luck and I hope to see you in training.
