Any phone numbers?

Anyone know who I can contact about not being invited to start the process?

I’m like 1600 and still never got an OPA invite. Shit is a joke.

Oh, nice. I got skipped for no reason. Life huh.

Same. However, I took my HVAC test last week. There were only about 20 of us. The proctors said you either get a pass or a fail. If you pass, you get an email from Sterling, I guess for background stuff. After, you get an interview and then a PAT physical or something like that. They stated the whole process could take up to a year, but they didn’t mention any hiring freezes, nor did anyone ask.

Thank god I found this thread. Last night I received an invitation to come in and take a test for HVAC Technician with MNRR. Why did they invite me during a hiring freeze? The test is on the 25th of January. Does anyone know what I can expect from this test and the competitiveness level? It doesn't seem like many people are taking it, compared to other exams like Conductor 6601 (which I'm also under). Any information helps, guys! Thanks.

Nah, it was an email.

When I asked about hilding my list number until I move back to NY. “The Employment Center calls applicants for processing as vacancies occur based on their list number. Once they reach your list number, you will receive a letter in the mail with a date and time to report to the Employment Center. The list number is good for 4 years from the date it started. List established 2/14/2018 Date exhausted 2/14/2022. If you are called to the Employment Center for the pre-employment process, and you miss your appointment, you will have to have your name restored to the list. Please keep in mind, you can only have your names restored if the list is active. Once it is exhausted, it is no longer used for hiring.”

I’m really discouraged at the moment seeing how fast this is moving in relation to my situation. I’m still stuck in Florida until November when I graduate HVAC school. I’m #16xx and never received an OPA invite and even if I did, I wouldn’t be able to fly back to NY yet. My plan was to move back to NY by the time they reached 16xx but it seems they already passed me.

Nooo way....I’m 16xx and I haven’t even been invited to the OPA.

From the looks of it, they spread pieces of paper with our names on them on the floor, then they have a midget covered in honey roll over those pieces of paper, then they have another blindfolded midget take the names off of the other midget’s body and that’s how they get our names. I’m 16xx...no OPA invite.

Ok, with that, it’s safe to say that transit has a pretty shitty system when it comes to processing exams. Really unorganized to say the least.

Shit, I wish I was in a fortunate enough circumstance to defer a job like this one. I would give my left nut to be in these guys’ positions. I live check to check and I’m #16xx.

Baffled. I’m making close to minimum wage. I actually need this job haha

Definitely. I emailed them on Thursday. Hopefully, I’ll receive a response from them this week. I’m planning on moving back to NY by November of this year when I’m done with HVAC school. They’ll probably reach my number by then.
