Congrats on getting the green light! My interview isn't until January third so I'm still waiting. That's interesting about the new assessment session. I hope it doesn't affect our training schedule because May is ideal for me. I think someone may have spilled water on me at the assessment, although ...

Figured I may as well post an update - scheduled my in person interview!

Had my interview yesterday, and my green light lit up today. Feeling very grateful that this process is going so smoothly for me.

Hey all, I thought I remembered a thread about the phone interview, but now that I've gone looking I can't find it. Feel free to point me in the right direction if I just missed it. If not, do any of you have advice for the phone interview? From what I understand it's mostly questions about myself (...

MikeAndHike, thanks for the interview tips. I'm definitely going to prep over the weekend. Fstjhhny - Yes, I scheduled my interview as well! I'm lucky that the process is moving so quickly for me. I took the online test on July 24, so it took less than two months for me to schedule the first intervi...

I found out today that I passed the assessment test! Great feeling, now to prep for the interview. Best of luck to you, Landynu. I hope you passed, too.

Hey everyone - just got invited to an assessment session in Winnipeg for next Wednesday. Very exciting but also horrible timing because I just left Winnipeg and will now need to fly back immediately. Oh well, I'm looking at the flight costs and session fees as a necessary investment. Who else got an...

So from what I gather Nav Canada would like to encourage more women to apply, so that the applicant gender ratio will be equal (presumably translating into an equal pass ratio). NOT that Nav Canada lets gender factor into it's decision once applicants are in the system.

Thanks!

I obviously don't expect you to know the ins and outs of Nav Canada hiring stats, but any tidbit of info helps!

Yeah they did ask if I was male or female, but they also asked for birthdate etc so it could have just been for the sake of demographics information. I'm really happy to hear that more women are in your training group, because kevenv's numbers were kind of shocking to me (didn't realize the gap woul...

TA/RA: Thanks for the response! The reason I asked about the company explicitly looking to hire females is because I noticed how they asked if I was a visible minority, a person with disabilities, etc. I am not super familiar with the Canadian Employment Equity Act but I got the feeling that those f...

Hey folks - this is my first post on this forum, so I'd like to start by saying hi :) I'm a 20 year old woman who is wrapping up an undergrad degree and seriously considering VFR (passed online tests, waiting for an assessment offer). I've been lurking for awhile and am hoping some of you can share ...
