Contact the recruiting office. You won't find your answer here.

Thank you for your help

I will go there in person as soon as i can

Hi.

If you go to forces.ca they show which trades are accepting applications and which trades are in high demand. Watch the videos and read the bios for each of these trades until you have narrowed it down to 3 or 4 then go speak to a recruiter. Sit down with them and discuss these options and reapply. Follow up is key, recruiters see alot of faces on a daily basis so if you don't follow up you may not hear back. Staying in touch with them also shows a level of drive and commitment they are looking for.

Good luck on your application!

The website is misleading, you'd best go to a recruiting office and check with them, they have actual numbers on the openings and closures. The website told me they we're accepting application in ACS but when i got to the recruiting center they told me it was closed for 2011 and only 8 positions opened through out the AVN,AVS,ACS and AWS at the national level. I did get my call for AVS tho!!!
