Re: YEG Applications process
I just received the green light for the phone interview. I have just one doubt, should we submit the documents before or after the second round interview? I ask NAV Canada about this, but they weren't really helpful on their reply.
Re: YEG Applications process
Send your documents in now, before the second interview.

Re: YEG Applications process
Hi guys I just started my application process and stumbled upon this forum so I thought I'd post my progress and hopefully meet others in the same boat as me.
I finished my online test on March 7, 2018 and am waiting for an assessment session.
I know there was one in February so I'm not expecting one anytime soon but if anyone hears anything, let me know!

Re: YEG Applications process
Good luck!! normally there are three sessions every year in Edmonton (according with the website), so if you really did good on your online test, you should be called soon ( I think it's done between july and august).amyenkhbat wrote: ↑Wed Apr 04, 2018 10:08 pm Hi guys I just started my application process and stumbled upon this forum so I thought I'd post my progress and hopefully meet others in the same boat as me.

Re: YEG Applications process
Update on my application process.
Online application: Aug 26 2016
Online application green light: Aug 27 2016
In person assessment: (I missed an invite for December, so I ended up getting an invite for May 17 2017)
In person assessment results: May 29 2017
Phone interview: June 17 2017
Phone interview results: June 19 2017
In person interview: Feb 21 2018
In person interview results: May 05 2018. Green light for IFR stream.
Sure took a long time but I'm in the candidate pool now. I'm hoping for the best. I hear YEG is always understaffed for IFR so hopefully it works out for me. Glad to be in IFR as well as my wife has a great job here in edmonton and would have hated to make her move for VFR. Anyways if I get put on a course I will be sure to update again. Good luck to all other candidates out there!

Re: YEG Applications process
Congrats!
I was in the May 2018 in person testing as well. I got the green light for IFR back in September. If they are just waiting for enough IFR candiates to run a course mayhaps we will be seeing each other in the course soon!
I'll keep you posted if and when I hear anything!

Re: YEG Applications process
I know an IFR controller here in YEG, who also teaches the classes for IFR. I plan on spending a day on the job with him sometime soon, maybe I can get some more information then!

Re: YEG Applications process
WOW!!! that was fast for the in person interview. For sure you had a really good assessment and Phone interview. I was green lighted on my phone interview on March 28th and I was hoping to get my IN person interview later this year. I'm guessing that they are really trying to fulfill spaces for a fall training.

Re: YEG Applications process
Fingers crossed for sure... the in-person interview was a lot more difficult this go around, much different than the first time I went through it.babyboy_legolas wrote: ↑Wed May 09, 2018 12:54 pm

Re: YEG Applications process
I haven't done another interview with them, but I definitely found it harder than I was expecting based on what I'd heard from recruiting and read online.
I am 100% just speculating here, but based on the questions it seemed like they're really trying to screen for potential burnouts. There was a lot of discussion of stress management and the like. Anyways I thought it went well but by its nature it's a hard thing to evaluate yourself at.

Re: YEG Applications process
Guys,
I have a couple of questions for the ones called for the In Person interview.
- Before the call to set up the Interview, did your information change on you Takecharge page? I still have the information asking to send the documentation (Which I did, and also I receive the letter from NAV Canada confirming that they received).
- Did you get the call from Edmonton or from the NAV Canada in Ontario? Did they send an email to confirm as well?
Thanks for the info.

For me nothing changed, I just got a phone call one day. It was the HR Rep for the Edmonton FIR who called.babyboy_legolas wrote: ↑Fri May 18, 2018 3:40 pm Guys,

Re: YEG Applications process
Info on the take charge website seems to be somewhat slow at updating... like I've mentioned a few times, even after I received my course offer, my status after the in person interview was still yellow.babyboy_legolas wrote: ↑Fri May 18, 2018 3:40 pm Guys,

The call came from Edmonton FIR. The email that was sent appeared to have just come from Take Charge, giving you the same info as you would find on the take charge website.
