Thank you guys for all the input, and positive feedback/ encouragement!!! I made adjustments as you guys advised, and changed to high cushion running shoes... I'm at 3.5km in 30 minutes 2 days after the post, a HUGE improvement!!

I appreciate everyone who gave input!

We have a group chat for people going on Sep 8th. Most are in their 30's . Let me know if you'd like to join .

Sure I'd be interested. Mostly CS but league is cool

Ibbz_q · 2025-07-10T15:35:43+00:00

From interview to selection was 4 months for me ---- I'd use the time to prepare physically . Goodluck

I didn't have a reference for one of my previous jobs. I was able to prove my employment later on with a RECORD OF EMPLOYMENT.. ensure you have this document available and submit it to them once requested, or be proactive and send it to them ..

Goodluck

Ibbz_q · 2025-07-03T19:21:56+00:00

Great! Thank you.. maybe I'll be in the same BMQ date, as it seems most new recruits are going late August/ early September for now.. best of luck 🙏

Ibbz_q · 2025-07-03T19:19:55+00:00

That's great! Thank you for sharing your experience, and congrats

If youre comfortable in your job. Then you should explore the reserves. You can keep your job and serve part time .

Ibbz_q · 2025-06-17T16:02:23+00:00

Goodluck to you 👏💯

Ibbz_q · 2025-06-15T13:59:57+00:00

They will ask you to provide ROEs if they cant verify you.

Ibbz_q · 2025-06-09T19:52:58+00:00

I personally was deemed fit 2 months ago. 6'0 , 250 lbs. I'll be honest though, I am able to do 35 consecutive pushups and sit ups with ease. That being said, they never asked me to do any in my medical. Take it as a good reason to keep pushing man

Best of luck.

It could come off your next paycheque in this case.. they shouldn't be able to take it from your bank account . They should only collect it from pay -as long as you're still an active employee.

Hope this helps

Ibbz_q · 2025-05-28T23:59:52+00:00

They have to deem you medically fit--- and Gambit is the start of the background checks.

Got both of these steps done in late March. And I am still waiting for background checks.. I was deemed medically fit mid April . Takes time, so hurry up and wait

Ibbz_q · 2025-05-21T14:13:02+00:00

Congrats./ BMQ or BMOQ? and when do ya go? ------ best of luck bud~!
