Staffing I’m more curious about why we get issued massive slowdown and vectors only to be sped up and given a shortcut from the next sector. Speed up, slow down, vectors for spacing, direct DUTIR or (whatever DTW waypoint) best forward, no restrictions. We can only talk to one person at a time. Whe...

There will be dates in January and December as well I believe

Some doctors will fight for you more than others. I would suggest going on to the pilot part of this forum (cat 1 and 2 are very similar) and seeing what CAMEs in your area are the more litigious type.

It would likely improve your chances of an offer

There have been a number of 1-post account bots spitting out ChatGPT sounding answers on this forum.

Does anyone know when IFR offers generally go out? or the start dates for Fall classes? I just finished my interview and now have a status of "Eligible for Offer". I know it can take a while to actually get and offer, but if I knew the general timelines I would have a better idea of when I might ge...

Where do you get 5 years from? People tend to think of just instructors salary but add in the entire training team from IPS, TDI, MALD, LQS, IDS, OTS just to mention a few, then the figure grows quickly. I’m not here to substantiate the figures though, just posting what Nav Canada claims to be the ...

I've heard of deferring a course for 6 months but not more than a year. Keep in mind that just because you have an offer now doesn't preclude more competitive applicants from materializing later. Transferring an offer isn't really a thing. You can ask, they might say no. You are coming from YYZ whic...

I'm gonna say this once to hopefully put an end to this.

**Stop worrying about your Workday status.** Worry about what the email says. If you got an email saying you passed/failed your Feast/Interview, it doesn't matter what the Workday status is, only what the email says.

… it's unlikely candidates undergoing FEAST this month are going to be considered for Spring 2025 courses, but I'm just guessing. Don’t think this is true. Applicants not already in the “eligible for offer” pool may be too late for a fall VFR offer (but maybe not, and that’s why there’s a quick tur...

Would you say the test outlines clear expectations for each sub-test that is provided? In other words, are the instructions clear?

yes but the scoring isn't

1. you must shut up during the test
2. no
3. there's a cafeteria open during banker's hours

Looks like the 16 IFR spots have been filled for a Feb course already. Next VFR course likely in late spring, not sure if it's filled yet. Edit: Generally only 1 IFR course is run per year, so the next opportunity is likely Feb/March of 2025 How far in advance do offers tend to go out? Usually they...

It really can be anywhere between 1 week and 3 years. Though most people who get an offer do so within 6 months.

From what I remember, the referral program guarantees an invite to the Feast. So it's not a slam dunk. Honestly I'd just write the online test. In my experience, if you have trouble with the online test, you'd have even more trouble with the Feast. I'm sure others might disagree though.

Thanks for the reply! This is good to know. Gander is my first pick, but I would move to moncton in a heartbeat if I could get an IFR offer. I see you mentioned that everyone who passes feast will get an email for an interview. Is this only for people who pass FSS and ATC, or also people who are on...

From what I know everyone who passed Feast gets an invitation to an interview. The issue is that it's first come first serve, and there are typically fewer interview slots than invitees. So in terms of getting an interview spot, how early you open that email is as important as how highly you scored....

I would suggest looking at student housing for one of the universities in the area. Look at UTM, York, Centennial. Generally speaking the landlords near colleges are scummier than the ones near universities. You can look for sublets where people let for 4-8 months at a time, usually beginning on Ja...

at any stage if you fail you will be notified. so no news is good news

I have heard some got their offers on the same day. I have also heard some got standby after a few months and a firm offer a few months after that. So ymmv

Depends when you apply. I'm hearing now that the application process itself (from application to offer and your class date) is getting shorter but the class dates are also further out.

I've heard nothing yet. People talk of a 2-3 year onboarding process, which is a bit concerning. At that point, I'll be pretty deep into another career, and then taking a paycut down to 45k/year (especially hard in Vancouver lol) with a 30% success rate in training is a pretty huge gamble (I applie...

no but they inform you if you fail. it shouldn't take too long after it's submitted, maybe a week

You are correct that there was an offer, consideration, and acceptance. In case of breach of contract - which in this case is true - the distressed party (the buyer, and original poster) is entitled to a remedy. Given that the selling party is taking measures to return the money via the e-transfer e...
