      I wouldn’t. It’s a great job. There are lots of people I know that live in the city when they first started.

      Just got discouraged after hearing horror stories, lol someone even directly recommended buying a car for the commute but I can't afford it right now. Dunno how I'm supposed to make it to Stamford or wherever from the Bronx at 2am lol.

      Conductor 6601 Hiring Process

      Also to add on to the other person comment. In school car if you don't understand something or have any questions ask your TSS they are there to help. At first it will be a little overwhelming because everything is new but you will get it. Good luck 👍🏿

      Conductor 6601 Hiring Process

      By goliver28 · Posted

      You have to wear a light blue buttoned shirt and dark blue khakis-like kind of pants. If you’ve seen the kind of shirts and pants conductors wear then you get the idea. I’d recommend KAKA bag because you’ll be carrying a lot of books. As for school car simply be on time, pay attention in class and don’t use your phone. Take notes on what the TSS’s are saying. They’ll tell you the key things to study so make sure you pay attention to those things. Also the 2 main thing to know as a conductor are the platform and conductor’s indication board. Know which side of the platform to open the doors and the conductor’s indication board(board with white and black stripes) is what tells you all doors are inside the station.
