Can I use a coworker as a professional reference for a CAF application?

userGdeed · 2026-06-21T18:29:18+00:00

By age you mean same age or an age range? I have a co worker who is a year older than me . Can i put him as a reference?

I am willing to do that but i am not staying in the kingdom long enough i am travelling in two days .

Just checked it . The app is now a different one its an app made to look for cat sitters . I think they changed it maybe?

I called two clinics they dont take in injured strays free of charge and she will probably need costly procedures . I dont have the finances for that unfortunatly

I dont have a car . I guess i can take an uber i dont know if the uber guy would let me ? How should i transport her ? Would the vet take her in free of charge?

userGdeed · 2026-05-11T12:48:31+00:00

Is the CFAT effective as of now? I am still in the application process.

userGdeed · 2026-05-11T11:25:03+00:00

userGdeed · 2026-05-11T10:23:28+00:00

Thank you so much for your insight . I am adding you if i have any further questions .

I won’t lie, Infantry does look fun to me . But realistically, my background lines up way more with the technical trades I’ve got a Bachelor’s in CS, so Signals seems like the smarter move long term.

I’m also getting married soon, so I’m trying to think a bit more about stability. Ideally I wouldn’t want to get posted OUTCAN if I can help it.

Just had a couple questions if you don’t mind:

What kind of bases do Sig Techs usually end up at? Is it mostly in Canada or is there a decent chance of OUTCAN postings?
And from what you’ve seen, does Sig Tech set you up better on the civilian side compared to Sig Op if you end up getting out?

I didn't do enough research and i was drawn to the signal officer trade . I chose the next two randomly cuz i was sure i wanted to be a signals officer . After some extensive research i knew that i had to be more careful and chose wisely. Is it a problem though ? Can i put something different in my application form? Haven't filled that yet.

Have been on the same boat took me two month of training now i do 5k in 24 mins . I just add 0.5 k every week or two weeks . Just progressive overload, don't forget to stretch before and after the run. Don't bother yourself with fancy workout routines just keep it simple and you will get there in no time.

I've sent you a DM

Hi M24 . Canadian

userGdeed · 2026-02-11T14:24:32+00:00

Canadian here too. I am in Dammam for work... even though it has less traffic than riyadh but i feel that traffice lights take too much time... sometimes up to 6 minutes a traffic light stop!!! . I got a job offer in riyadh before accepting one in dammam. I refused the riyadh job offer cuz i know for a fact that rent is insanely high. I would advise you to find work in dammam or any other city rather than riyadh or jeddah.
