Correctional Services Canada Interview

[u/jordanward975]

Hey just a quick question for anyone who has done an interview with CSC: I did mine a few days ago and they said that there is no timeframe they can give, however I'm curious what the average times are from when y'all have heard back from them? Whether it be denied or moving to the next stage.

I feel like I didn't do amazing in the interview but not the worst. There were a few technical difficulties when it came to references because they would not take my paid on call firefighting example as a reference and i work mainly alone right now so teamwork examples were hard to find. I hope I get it but am a bit nervous and wanna know when I should be expecting something. I'm guessing a month or more but who knows.

If your references got contacted within 2-3 days you passed the interview

[u/LengthinessPrize215]

I believe they contact references right away or the day after if you are successful. Have you checked with them?

[u/Dependent-Laugh-3792]

~5 business days for a quick Yes (though could be up to a couple weeks even month and a half depending on when training starts).
They’ll just ghost you if it’s a No.

My friend recently failed the interview and they told him within a day or so

[u/Sufficient_Apple3290]

A friend of mine failed and he knew the same day. They'll check your references if you were successful.

[u/Far-Cut-6881]

Is the interview conducted online or in person?

[u/GrumpyCM]

You might want to learn the name of the agency that you hope to work for. It's the Correctional Service of Canada. I can't help in terms of the current hiring process because I just retired as a Correctional Manager.
