Ok what was the reason you failed pre employment the first 2x ? 

 

Not trying to be a stickler, but just give us game and tips on what to be ready for.

 

And mistakes regarding what's in the packet ! Just trying to be ready. 

 

If we can learn from past mistakes that would be a blessing. !

They didn't fail pre employment. You take a drug test during pre employment that expires in 90 days. If they don't get to your number before the 90 days is up it expires and you must do pre employment again

Keep in mind, it's been a year with a lot of classes graduating since then. Sooner or later, the spout will be closed especially when Transit has to consider hiring off of the promotional exam.

I'm wondering when will they start back hiring from this list. The forum has been pretty quiet since the 10/3 class started. I had pre employment last month

Did everyone email the Canvass application back before the Pre-employment day? 

No, you hand it in at Pre-employment

I wish this was the case. I'm 372x and there's someone here who just finished medical and is starting the may class and their list # is 375x. We both missed our initial pre employment dates and went in for the drug test around the same time. I wish I knew why some get called right away and others get skipped. 

Oh okay, I hear you. You and that individual are both ahead of me. Hopefully they'll call you for the June class, I wish you the best. I hope that I'm able to tie up some loose ends before they call me for medical.

I read some where on this forum of someone who passed their OPA and the same day the offered him the job. But again idk how true that is being that everyone that I have read on this forum has gone through quite a step by step process pertaining to being hired and eventually making it to Conductors school. Hopefully before this month ends you will have your medical done and over with.

It may be true. I recently received an email to come in for the OPA. My email states "If you pass the OPA you will be immediately processed for consideration for employment which includes a drug screening and medical exam. Please verify that your email and phone number are current."

I'm assuming this is because they weren't able to contact me when I was originally supposed to take the OPA.

List # 64xx

I was on Livingston Tuesday it was a guy there who said he was in the 3900's there to hand in paperwork and see medical.  I dont think yall were skipped I just think special circumstances get you called back soon. ex military,or missed inital pre employ date.

I've basically been keeping up with what number they are up to based on the posts here in this forum. I know that not everyone on the list is on the forum but I haven't seen anyone here that says they went for medical with a number higher than mine. There is a possibility that the guy you saw at Livingston confused the medical with the drug test.

No one on medical updates?

List #37xx still waiting for medical. So they aren't at 38xx or 39xx for Medical yet. Some people believe their number was bypassed based on that information.

I'm part of the Conductor 6601 test and will start school car May 30th. Good luck to all the TO's starting soon, can't wait to see you guys on the road some day! 

Good luck to you and everyone else starting soon. I'm on that list as well as this one and I hope I can get my foot in the door with one of the two.

I was looking and some people

have been waiting a month but for you it was only a week to get the call

Yea I got really lucky. Not sure if it’s because I was called before. Because I had originally a pre employ back in March 23rd. But I couldn’t make it since the email went to spam and I wasn’t aware. So I contacted them immediately and they contacted me a week after telling me to go on 4/20 and so I did and took care of everything that day. Had my forms signed and filled before goin in. 

This definitely adds context as to why you were called for medical so fast. 

As someone who has read every post in this thread I know that the time from initial pre-employment to medical appointment varies greatly. Not too long ago some individuals had to attend pre-employment multiple times. Personally I attended my initial pre-employment on March 31st and I'm patiently waiting to be contacted for medical. 

List # 37xx

I honestly forgot about my name being on this list and figured that I wouldn't be contacted before the list expired.

List # 64xx

Now that they have extended the list and there's a possibility of them reaching my number I've already been contacted for pre-employment for exam 7604.

I hope that everyone that's already taken the exam did well and for those who haven't taken it yet I wish you all the best. For me the proposed answer key can't come out soon enough. I just want to know how I did lol

I also noticed a problem with a question.It involved doing some sort of logic work where if a=1 then b=3 if a=1.

anyways,based on the information on the passage,i did the logic,however i got two answers that were correct based on the problem solving i did.was i the only one who noticed the two answers?

I took the exam yesterday at 3pm. Yes the exam is easy in the sense of the concepts being easy, but I still utilized most of the time allowed(2:50 out of 3:00). I wanted t make sure that I got 100 on that exam or very close to it. I was the second to last person left in that room and my ego was a little hurt by that, especially with a few people leaving half way into the exam. I hope everyone did well, but I do think that people will get a lower score than expected because they underestimated the exam and probably did not answer the questions with caution. There was one question in particular which I am pretty sure had two correct answers on the key. I hope everyone had a good experience, I believe I scored between 98-100. Ask me any questions if curious and share your experiences. How long did you guys take on the exam?

I took the exam the same time as you and feel the same way about 1 question having more than one answer. I used about 2 of the 3 hours to finish and go over the exam.
