They will be highlighting their paid education programs, which cover up to 100% of your education and guarantees a job in your field with the CAF after you graduate. These programs are available to all bachelor degree programs at Carleton University, including students who have completed up to 50% of their degree. To be eligible, students must be either a Canadian citizen or permanent resident.

The CAF is currently hiring for 100+ different jobs, many of which fall into the fields of social sciences and humanities, engineering, science, and healthcare. Some examples of occupations they are hiring for include: Nursing Officer, Logistics Officer, Aerospace Engineering Officer, Construction Engineering Officer, Public Affairs Officer, and Military Police Officer.

The CAF offers competitive salaries and world-class benefit packages. No matter your interests, whatever your goals, find a career that fits you in the Canadian Armed Forces!
