I applied! This looks like a great job.

how long did it take for a call back?

My class was a special exception for hiring time. 9 months. Kept on getting email updates from HR as to us still being potential candidates. The long wait time in our case was due to both the CN Engineers strike and the olympics. I am not HR, and I cannot give a timeline. If I were to guess though, I would peg it around the 4 or 5 month mark that they would start having people in for training.

I hope I get a call back since my previous work experience isn't that great

application submitted. hopefully we all get hired :)

i applied yeah would be a great job...

honestly i wish i knew how the screening process works. i've got great CSR and cpu skills and trades experience, as well as supervising/training and mentorship exp

why does that seem not enough to me ...?

all you can do is apply.i applied just the other night
4 years of technician dispatching experience in a dealership, no formal schooling or any of that bs
we'll see how that goes haha

they give you a Drug test.

there goes more than half revscene's applicants ;)

anyone hear back from them yet? i didnt :(

I haven't heard back.
I'm not really keeping my hopes up since I'm still in school, but if they do call me back, fuck school. I'm working. hah.

I was thisclose to taking the course at BCIT... but damn it's expensive.

Still, I've thought long and hard about applying anyways to see if I could get in without it.

Something to think about the next time it's pissing with rain, and freezing outside... you'd be working in it! A lot of people think they can deal with it, but it's not easy. There is a reason the pay is good!

these guys got about 5000 applications, more are still coming in. if you get called for testing, consider yourself lucky. for the first wave, they usually call in the top 1% of applicants for testing.

So, for those who have applied and heard back, pm me if you have questions. I'm also curious to know who got contacted back and where you are in the process.

Hi guys, I applied a few *weeks* ago and just got an email being invited to the upcoming orientation session. Anyone else get this email?

on a related note, who knows how to tie 2 hotmail addresses together so i get alrets when new email comes in to the other :D

You can forward your hotmails from one acct to another. It's in the options somewhere. Or just google how to do it.

ya just forward ur emails.. i do that with all my email accounts coz i really only check one.. downside is.. they forward the spam mail as well =_=
