Hey guys, did my FEAST assessment on February 14th for YYZ. Has anyone heard back yet?
I think we will find out first week of March, maybe next week if we are lucky.
Yep, I hope so. Actually kinda nervous but I know we got this. Fingers crossed , I graduate this year and it would be pretty sweet to start training soon, as I’d have all the time in the world to dedicate to it with no other real obligations/responsibilities.

I feel you, I graduated and Poli Sci is useless without more volunteering than the average student can handle (mentally) or without a grad degree so I would love to drop this anatomy course and switch over to the ATC course.
At this point I just want to know, regardless of how I did, I’m sure it’s worse for earlier writers.

Im in the same boat as you guys, recent grad and I already live like a nomad so I have no issues moving anywhere in the country.
Hello everyone, i attended the in-person assessment at YYZ in first week of February. Did the instructor highlighted that bootcamp will happen in mid-march with offer letters given out in early April? Can anyone confirm the timeline of further process.
Our instructor told us that bootcamp offers will go out early March for bootcamps happening the week of Easter and the week after. He didn’t tell us when job offers would go out, but I would assume mid-May!

Yeah I remember something similar to that, and then training begins in Fall.
Nice, guess we'll know soon if we were among the top applicants to proceed. Whoever gets an email or a status update, keep us in the loop! I'll do the same

Did anyone get an offer (email from HR) to test in Gander or was this just me?
I did! I'm going to the weekend session, how about you?
Congrats!! I’m going on Friday, flying out of London on Thursday. Probably should have done Wednesday to be safe but being a student I’m strapped for cash.
Do you know if they’ve moved our files so we test in Gander but return to Toronto if we are successful or if we are now Gander bound upon success? My email chats read as both with them.
Hey there, curious to know how Gander was? Did they tell you if you'd return to YYZ if successful, or remain in Gander? I ask because I was also invited to Gander (YYZ file) and declined because I was not able to make the dates.

No idea, all of what I’m going to say is based on both my research and what HR has said.
I didn’t mind it but I am probably one of the few (I assume) who has absolutely 0 need to stay where I am so that may affect how I see it. There were at least 2-3 others who weren’t from NL (presently) and maybe 10 or so who wrote on the same day as me. I assume weekends had more both in terms of locals and other travellers.
HR emailed me saying testing, assessments and training in Gander when they first offered and said my file was moved so I assume that’s where I’m at right now but I don’t know anything about afterwards.
However, the HR rep at the assessment congratulated us (before the last test) on making this far and just laid out some basic “what’s next.” They said anyone from Gander would likely hear something by mid-March for April interviews but they weren’t sure for anyone who travelled. I think I’ve read, that some people were offered testing in other regions with the ability to return to their region (due to limited spaces) so I’m just sort of riding it out and seeing where it goes.

One of my friends was offered to give FEAST in Gander.
The email said that his file could move back to Toronto for rest of the application process and training.
Based on the above info, it seems like scores of people who attended in YYZ, and scores of people from YYZ but attended in YQX would be tabulated and the top candidates would be offered to attend the boot camp in YYZ. And I suppose candidates who didn't score high enough might be offered to attend boot camp in YQX, even though they gave FEAST in YYZ. I think it is fair.
Logically, why shouldn't a YYZ candidate who gave feast in YQX be considered for YYZ boot camp, if they scored higher than people in YYZ?

This is kind of why I’m so stumped. I can think of at least 10 or so scenarios or “but if” comments that all kind of defeat another for determining testing in different regions. Luckily, for myself I have 0 attachment and only a preference for where I’m at (YYZ FIR) but I really couldn’t care where I end up if I get offered. Hopefully everyone else gets what they want though both in terms of the FEAST and FIR.
but I know we got this. Fingers crossed 
, I graduate this year and it would be pretty sweet to start training soon, as I’d have all the time in the world to dedicate to it with no other real obligations/responsibilities.
