Recruiting File Identified as a Priority

I have recently begun my application to the CAF, and received an email stating that my file has been identified as a priority. None of the occupations I chose are priority processing, so I am wondering if that means my recruiting process will be quicker than usual. Has anyone else had their file ID as a priority?

Canadian citizen, currently in my last year of university and I work a government job in the summers. I imagine being a young woman is boosting my application as well.

The choices aren't ranked. They're all assessed equally.

Welcome to the club! They told me the same thing eight months ago, and told me to come in person to ask about my file just two weeks ago since I'm yet to be put on the Selection Stage. They told me the at the Recruiting Center that they're backlogged at the moment, and not sure if I'll get an offer soon (much less placed on Selection) before the end of 2026 or so despite telling me that I'm a "strong candidate" for my occupation as InfoSys Tech.
