My sister is a border services officer at YVR, and she also goes to school at SFU. They seem to be very accommodating with her schedule, and the pay is good. They actually reduced the requirement from having post-secondary to just completing HS due to the increased demand for officers. I don't know how it is now, but this was the case in the summer.

A real full time officer position actually requires 2 years of post secondary to make the cut.

Group interview coming up next Weds Jan 28, got the invite prolly not gonna go lol. Test seems pretty basic, they even email you a PDF sample lol
I thought there was another thread commenting re: CBSA border guys making $55k and ppl making a fuss about it?? Not bad for simple gov gig in this environment though, I know alot of fresh grads would line up for a $50k+ job!

Online is the only way you can apply Trance
TRD: nah, don't know yet? it takes them 4-6 weeks after the interview for them to get back to you.

Just ask your recruiter. | I just started the CBSA application process and there's a section that allows you to choose where you're willing to locate to, and where you'd like to work. Basically I selected Lower Mainland/Fraser Valley only.  | |

Just wondering if anyone just recently applied??? I just got an email last week saying that I've met the prerequisite and I'll be contacted to do the BSOT. Just wondering if anyone's at the same stage as I am right now.
And wow, I didn't know they were hiring 10,000 in BC alone.
