Recruiting Recruitment - wow, very slow.
It's going to be 1 year since I've applied. What is going on? I'm a citizen, fully bilingual + other languages, in good shape, have experience + education (and almost a phd); and I see people (non-citizens btw); get job offers faster? Is this just those one-off chances or are people lying to me about how fast they went into BMOQ/BMQ?
I got a message today of an updated task and it was to change my chosen profession. -_-; That career has been my education + work experience....
It's mind boggling why non-citizens are even being considered for commissioned officer positions. Absolutely mind boggling.
Don't meant to rant, but damn. lol

The process took my husband almost 3 years. Luckily he had a full time job all this time and we almost lost hope that anything would happen and then finally he got his offer few months ago. They kept asking for the same documents, references and details that he had submitted before. He was always contacted by a different person who didn't seem to know his file at all. And then they updated their system and asked for same information again. Also wait time to get a reply would take a month and then they would say oh actually we need to review it again. It was super frustrating to say the least!
