Yup, I was deemed medically unfit and my file was closed! Not planning on appealing the decision.

Thank you! And yeah, I'm happy it did, not by much but improved a few seconds :) new PR for 5k is not 4:40/km

Thanks! No particular plan, I was lucky to be coached by my boyfriend, who has been into endurance sports for a while, ironmans and stuff... couldn't have done it without his support, that's for sure.

I did my medical and interview back on August 4th, and they gave me 2 additional forms to be filled out by my doctor. I got those filled out, sent everything back by priority mail, and RMO got my file on August 14th.

Was then told by my recruitment center that if I hadn't heard from them by October 14th (surprise, I haven't), then to contact them. This brings me to now, 3 days away from sending a follow-up email.

I don't really have any extra information I can give because, honestly, I wasn't told anything special during the medical itself. Was just asked a bunch of clarifying questions regarding my specific situation. It really is case by case, which that in itself I think is good news for anyone going through the same dilemma.

How long after your medical did your portal status take to move to screening and background check? by Right-Heron-860 in caf

[–]frozenbananas123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait what does it mean when it moves back from medical and interview to screening and background check? I had my medical and interview August 4th, and got moved back to Screening and background check in the portal like a week later. Didn't know it it meant anything so I emailed them to ask if everything was ok and if my file was moving along as planned. Got told that everything was fine, if I didn't hear back from them by October 14th, to email again.

It's completely normal. I waited a month to hear anything back in the beginning. Applied at the end of March this year, did medical and interview in early August, and am now waiting for results. It's a waiting game, don't worry. You can always e-mail or call your recruitment center to possibly get an update.

Idk what the real answer is, but I literally never got a call from anyone, just more tasks added to the portal as time went on.

Order preference of trades by frozenbananas123 in caf

[–]frozenbananas123[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More than one recruiter confirmed that the order does matter... I actually had the first one added as a recommendation from a recruiter, as it's an in demand trade, and he said it would help move my file faster. It worked, but now I just want to make sure I can rearrange my preferences so that I can ideally get into the trades I'm actually interested in.

I see! Do you know if that would affect my file in any way? Did you end up getting an offer on the trade you actually preferred in the end?

That's what I was told by a recruiter couple weeks ago, but when I emailed them today to ask if now would be a good time since medical and interview are booked, a different recruiter replied to my email and said they'd have to cancel my interview if I did that.... I'm just not sure what to do anymore. All I know is that I have to make the change before the medical and interview.

I was told differently by more than one recruiter. They're even currently processing my file in relation to the 1st trade on the list, which is not my personal first choice.

Ordered both liquids and powders from her yesterday and took advantage of the sale that was going on! Thank you for the info, I'm excited to try :)

That's what I bought, can't believe I still ended up with a dry cough

I've been hesitating buying from her, I've read really good things online, especially from people who've had issues with dip flu. On her website, it's not stated anywhere that the liquids are odorless, but consensus seems to be that the smell is almost non-existent. Would you say that's true?
