  1. Okay, good to know. That's interesting. 180 has been a dedicated hub for so long with those operations departments you mentioned. Guess they'll finally get those bus lanes free on Livingston. Thanks again.
  2. Just curious here, are all operational divisions moving out of 180? This an end lease situation? Seems like a quick move(end of month) if it's their entire operation at 180 moving. Not knowledgeable about the history, but that's a major logistical point for TA.

  4. Details Below: [Mods, delete post upon event completion] https://new.mta.info/article/bus-maintenance-open-house-january-7-2024 "Bus Maintenance Open House January 7, 2024 Join the team that moves millions. MTA New York City Transit and MTA Bus Company are hiring Auto Mechanics, Auto Mechanic Supervisors, and Auto Mechanic Helpers." "Sunday, January 7, 2024 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 180 Livingston St, Brooklyn, NY 11201"
  5. Okay, you're infact looking for a wage progression chart. While postings for jobs will show the progression chart, if there's been no recent posting it might not be easily accessible to grab. I would suspect the progression will mirror the breakdowns of most twu repped positions. 70% $25.05 of $35.79. This will be just math if you know the time period to 100% and the percentage increase on the progression. But yeah, some job postings do offer the charts up front
  6. This may assist you in getting what you are looking for. https://www.twulocal100.org/2023-contract-wage-chart
  7. Yes, the AI assist will probably allow for ones resume to aquire a higher score against the stated position. Still, the wait times tend to be lengthy. So, apply in masse & forget. Only time you can count it is if they actually contact you back at anytime in the future.
  8. No, cover letters are not going to tip any scales. The response rate on application is very low. There are hundreds of applicants for single positions. So just on odds it is difficult to get advanced up to the next level. Some have mentioned tweaking resumes to match to postings though to increase odds. So using AI assistance for resume writing. And again, transit oftrn takes 6+ months past an application to contact those that get past initial screens. So patience is a key. But results are slim. Process in totality is long & often times messy. Good luck
  9. You may find information in a previous common Exam thread. https://www.nyctransitforums.com/topic/28895-traffic-checker-mabstoa/page/1/ Likely you can email examsunit & inquire on where they are at hiring on the list or visit 180 & inquire in person. If you've done pre employment, you can likely inquire about the status of your processing.
  10. Trading full time work (at post office) for part time work (traffic checker) likely is not in one's best interest. You are employed & can wait the duration for a full time entry at TA when the time comes & you're called for something that is full time. If you're on a civil service list, you can reinstate by contacting dcas. Once you have been removed from outgoing certifications. You can be on multiple lists, and seek the best/most desired for yourself if you can wait it out.
  11. While a competitive list lasts years, it only gets certified (pulled) for possible appointments ever so often. When they call you, you can appear & go through the process. Or not show up & get likely removed from the pull list of candidates. If you are removed, you have the right to reinstate your name on the list. Biggie advised you well, if you contact them likely they can give you a near term date if you can't make the appointment. If you don't process, or no show likely you may get dropped off the eligible list until you reinstate.. However, you will have to wait for another certification (pull) from the list. And these can take a while. His advice on Checkers/Station Agents is also very informative on the process. Good luck. How well you did on the SA Exam, when they score it, when they establish a list & when it gets certified will all determine how long it will take to get to you on that (potential) future list.
  12. I'm curious how this all ties into the State Sick Leave Law https://www.ny.gov/new-york-paid-sick-leave/new-york-paid-sick-leave#permitted_uses There's a whole section on it about retaliation if sick time is used. But it would seem TA limits the use on alloted sick time people accrue. They give you say 1 sick per month in accrued sick, but will penalize folks who utilize over a certain amount on an annual basic. Then at a terminal point pay sick out at 50%. I suppose once you have sick notes from docs the amount you can use is the amount you have in accrual.
  13. Quite Interesting, thanks all for the info. Guess there is a cost savings for them as well. Limit sick pay (which pays at 100%) while you're working but only pay it out at 50% at terminal point.
  14. You will be counseled to improve your sick leave record after your fifth unsubstantiated absence (no doctor's lines) for the year. On the 6th unsubstantiated absence, you will be placed on sick control and you will be required to provide doctor's line for every instance you book sick Thanks Jericho. When you mention "for the year" are you speaking for a calendar year Jan-Dec or for an MTA annual Year of May-May? So key is to keep it under 5 sick/callouts per year. Good info. Do you know of a 70/30 rule as well, something to the effect of maintaining 70% of your accrued sick, or be placed into console/control? Thanks again!
  15. What exactly is "sick consoliing & control" what triggers them to occur at transit?
  16. Have sent you a response on PM. Good luck on the process. Be patient
  17. Would not place much emphasis on the status changes inside the applications portal. Only time you take things seriously in there is if you're actually contacted by someone from HR in regards to your application. Other than that, apply. But don't have too much expectations. Get contacted, and that's your good sign. Everything else is a wash. Good luck with it.
  18. Here's the list of titles that exist in the analyst series: Associate Transit Management Analyst (OA – Represented by TWU) Min: $85,316 – Max: $110,468 Associate Transit Management Analyst (TA – Represented by DC-37) Min: $81,891 – Max: $106,027 Associate Transit Management Analyst (TA - NON/REP C&S) Min: $81,994 – Max: $106,164 Assistant Transit Management Analyst 1 (OA – Represented by TWU) Min: $65,003 – Max: $76,955 Assistant Transit Management Analyst 2 (OA – Represented by TWU) Min: $75,475 – Max: $ 84,060 Assistant Transit Management Analyst 1 (TA – NON/REP) Min: $62,471 – Max: $73,956 Assistant Transit Management Analyst 2 (TA – NON/REP) Min: $72,534 – Max: $80,784 Associate Staff Analyst (MTA BC – Represented by TWU): Min: $84,901 – Max: $109,929 Staff Analyst II (MTA BC – Represented by TWU): Min: $75,107 – Max: $83,649 Staff Analyst I (MTA BC - Represented by TWU): Min: $64,686 – Max: $76,579 Associate Staff Analyst (OA – Represented by TWU): Min: - Max: $85,316 - $110,468 Associate Staff Analyst (TA – Represented by OSA): Min: - Max: $77,356 - $100,155 Staff Analyst II (OA – Represented by TWU): Min: $75,475 – Max: $84,060 Staff Analyst II (TA – Represented by OSA): Min: $68,430 - Max: $76,213 Staff Analyst I (OA – Represented by TWU): Min: $65,003 - Max: $76,955 Staff Analyst I (TA – Represented by OSA): Min: $58,934 - Max: $69,771 Key distinction, will be some are (union) represented and some are not & yes you can go outside the analyst title for other titles. Exams allow for promotion, you could promote with hire to new title as well (but likely provisional vs permanent) Good Luck.
  19. 9613, Assistant Transit Management Analyst, 101 ELIGIBLE, 75 Vacancies 03/09-04/11 Salary now: $61,246 $62,471 9614, Associate Transit Management Analyst, 72 ELIGIBLE, 65 Vacancies 03/02-04/04. Salary now: $80,386 $81,994 Did any of you Analysts out there on these two exam lists get appointed off the hiring pools they conducted in March/April of 2022? Seems these lists have been neglected by NYCT, and they've chosen at times to hire off list, unfortunate! These small lists should have been exhausted, but likely not many were appointed yet, there are MANY Analyst opening on the mta job boards [https://www.mymta.info/careers/index.html] if you are on these lists, apply if you're interested & state on your resume you are on the list/s. While DCAS has not certified a list since around March of 2022, all eligible test passers can apply to these open title positions on the site, just ensure you state at the end or in your resume you are on the "Eligible List for Exam xxxx, TMA" If you apply, you are given at least 2nd priority line, first likely internal candidates, then second, eligibles on the exam list. Apply to any of the analyst positions you see on the site if you are on these lists!!
  20. Don't have to do homework on your issue. Clearly you are a genius capable of figuring out the problems on your own. You failed a aptitude test on a job application & are expecting a call? That call is coming any day now. Please wait patiently. Good Luck with it.
  21. I'm afraid you really don't know how this process works. You being pre screened on the mta job site means little to nothing. You applied, they received your application, it was reviewed. You are likely one among hundreds. They show passed pre screen, likely many others as well. You have little to no guarantee that they will ever call you for an interview for either of the positions you applied for. In the slight case that they do, you are going to be interviewing, there is nothing to study as they will be asking you about your experience, how you would handle behavioral situations. Your resume is what will allow you to even get an interview. You don't read books for interviews. This is not an exam!! If you are contacted by HR, just answer the questions they ask (most will be in relation to your background/experience) then likely you will have to be interviewed by the actual hiring managers. I hope you understand.
  22. So what you have there is not an exam, it is a Job ID. I take it that you have applied to those two jobs. You applied on the site? Did you get contacted by HR for interview? These are job postings, not exams! If you have been contacted for an interview, then you have to go through the interview process. Which can take months. Again, when apply online, you may or may not ever get contacted for that job. If you have been contacted, then you have to go through interviews (again no exam) Good Luck to you, please investigate the difference of the job application process versus an exam. Two entirely different things
  23. Questions for you.... 1. What Exam Are you preparing for? 2. What is the Exam number? 3. When is the Exam? 4. Have you already paid/signed up for the Exam? You need to provide details if you are seeking assistance.
  24. Not sure what your post is asking, the upcoming exams list [https://new.mta.info/careers/exam-schedule makes no mention of timekeeping/asst conductor. If you locate the Notice Of Exams, it will tell you the subjects that will be on the exam. But, the details on your post are lacking & inconclusive. Locate the NOE, it will have the exam topics, then perhaps you can go from there.
