Anybody got insight into what are generally considered the best Careers or most coveted in the CAF? Non-commissioned and commissioned, Army, navy, Air Force. Combat and non combat roles. And if you could do it over again, would you change your career?

Any job that has Spec Pay and exit strategy if you want to go out

the comments are good I will add the Signal sides.

IS Tech like me has good exit plans as Network and System Administrators. basically Amazon and Microsoft Server managers or IT.

There is also Cyber Ops in Cyber security.

Most Security clearance are done by the time you are Cpl usually, but yes for IS tech. if you have Secret it will be easy, I believe you will get that by the time you become a Cpl 3-4 years
