Also curious when the next Ottawa recruitment will begin... perhaps May 2018? Anyone have any info on this?!

Thanks!

Hey Vigiles,

Like in the previous years, they should have one in May 2018. They do have a budget meeting for protective services on December 7th. Hopefully they will shed some light on demand. Budget for 2018 will be approved December 13th. Once again maybe something will come up in the budget discussion or report. Until then we can only assume that May 2018 is the next recruitment.

Hi, I'm not sure where they are in the recruitment process but with a new class anticipated for March/ April in mind, anyone relocating and moving to the city I have a house for rent within under 5 mins drive to the training centre, 5 mins to downtown and a short walk to the new LRT stop. It will be available March 1st. Private message me if interested. Good luck to those involved in the process and I'll see you on the floor.

Thanks

Now interviewing 51-81 for spring recruit class. Hiring approx 24 for spring class with an additional class likely happening in the fall.

If anyone has any info regarding what the second interview is like I would be greatly appreciative! I’m scheduled for next week.

Thanks

I am rank 81 and did not get an email...

Are you sure they have invited from 51 to 81? I am currently tied at 81st and haven't heard anything? When did you get your invite?

[NorthwardFire]

PM’d you guns.

Here is the latest, they have invited candidate #51 to #80 for a second interview (next week). This means they have invited 30 candidates from the pool, the next number to be invited is #81. Class is scheduled to start in march (spring class with a potential of 24 recruits). Right now, they have 11 candidates on the "short list" which means they will take 13 candidates from this interview pool for the spring class. They might not do anymore second interviews after this batch depending on class sizes and how many candidates are on the short list. IF they do more interviews, they probably will do them in the summer time unless a double class this spring (happened before but most unlikely to have double classes). If anyone has anymore information, please do not hesitate to share. Thanks and good luck to all!

Anyone heard anything on this most recent round of interviews? How many passed, potential start of next class, if they are going to be going further down the list, etc? Seems pretty quiet on here.
