Exactly. U know it dcas were running the show the tests would be given every 4 years and you wouldn't have a list going on for nearly a decade like 8094

Yeah ever since transit took control of the exams from DCAS things have gone crazy. I still find it hard to believe that they are returning to 8094 which was given 9 years ago

It's definitely not the best city job at all......I think if you were a conductor for a few years you would understand why......

RTO life is hard and grueling. Not for everyone

So it's confirmed that they will be returning to 8094 once the promotional list is done?

Yes

The promotional list might last longer than you think.....

This is very interesting........definitely the first time the have ever done anything like that before.

It seems very strange that they would return to 8094 after moving on to the promotional list. They should move on to 6601, not go back to 8094. 8084 was given in 2009!

Once the promotional list is done they most likely will go to 6601 not 8094

That is insane. So they had 8094 going, then go to the promotional list, and once that is done they are going back to 8094?

Are u sure that 8094 isn't done? I never heard of anything like this before

That's what folks are saying as well..

What makes people fail it? Is it hard?

I have heard that some promos failed it....

What was hard about it?

Did everyone receive their admission notices already?

I didn't get mine yet!

So once the promotional list is established that marks the end of 8094? You can't have 2 lists going on together?

But this is where I'm so confused. 8094 was extended to February of 2018 so how could they be done with it?

So wait....are they done calling from 8094?

Yeah it looks like you will need a perfect score of no more than one wrong to get a call on this test

So 45,000 took this test?

How are they increasing the qualifications for conductors?

That's true, they could easily extend 8094 again. They could actually keep it going until the whole list is exhausted

We are looking around 4 years for 6601 to be established

That is not possible. 8094 will expire in feb 2018, then the promotional, then 6601.

I don't understand why they extended 8094 if they have the promotional list and this list. I'm baffled.

So it looks like 33,000 people took this test. I would say that to get a call for the job you will need to score at least a 98

But don't they need to establish a list before they can hire?

Do u think the oral proficiency assessment will be hard?
