It’s 13xx. I wanted to know who else filled the questionnaire because the instructions said to click on employee and enter pass number. But I’m not sure what pass number they are talking about. So I filled it out using my ss#. Wanted to know if anyone else did the same or knew what pass number they were asking for. I wish I could send you guys a screenshot to see.

Your social security number is fine. They are asking for a pass because I’m sure they send the same questionaire to employees when visiting the building . They are going to ask you at the counter if you filled it out and that’s all.

The lowest list number on this certified list is #36, and yet he is #17 on the certification sequence . Where are the other 16?  What are their list numbers? How can this be???

I think that there is no rhyme or reason to it . I’m number 7** and I’m 35 in the sequence

Just a question one of you guys may have the answer to. Im trying to start a family and at the same time I’m waiting for the call for t/o my list number is 16xx. Do they allow you to be pregnant during school car ? Or probation? What happens if you are ? Do they not hire you ? Or if you get hired and give birth during probation are you supposed to start school car all over or do they fire you? Want to be sure before hand 

I was actually pregnant when I was originally called and declined the offer. I didn’t do it because to my understanding there is a lot of climbing and physical activity during school car that might not be healthy for you to do during that time. Also when we are pregnant we have to use the bathroom a lot and that is something that is nearly impossible to do as often as we would need to. If you are called and pregnant and decline you can put yourself back on the list when ready. I put myself back on in January and I probably didn’t get called as quickly because of covid

Did he say if the TSS was a good teacher or one who acts like we're stupid, had one of them in my conductors class who talked down to all of us.

I’ll find out and get back to you

BX, interesting you say this because I heard this from someone that probably didn’t know about this yet , so if that is true it’s most likely less people, but he also said there’s way more than 57 spots to fill 

My friend who was in the last class told me his TSS told him he had another class in late August 

I just heard from someone in the last class that they have three classes scheduled for either the end of August or sometime in September.

Keep us updated on what’s going on and how they contact you. So everyone that’s gotten emailed has already gone for pre employment and medical?  Curious what will happen for those that havent

I have had none. I declined and never went for the medical or drug test. The thing is I don’t think it matters because they are going to make everyone do it again anyway. I will definitely post once I’ve heard something.

No idea im about to send mines off now just have to convert my drivers license into a pdf and high school diploma

My email only said HS diploma though the letter mentioned drivers license if it was a driving title. I didn’t send it because the email didn’t ask for it. I already work for transit so maybe they didn’t need it from me.

Bxjay, what is your partial list number so we can keep track ?  
 

they made you guys do this pretty quickly so I’m assuming this class is coming up 

My list number is 7**. I had declined appointment back in Oct of 2018.  I put myself back on the list in January. I’m wondering if they are doing this to just get themselves a big pool of candidates and do what they do sometimes with the back and forth for months and multiple pre employments or if they are serious and have an actual date. There is an absolute hiring freeze though they did say that it would allow for hiring for business needs and needed approval but I’m curious to know if they have a date or not. I have to have surgury within the next six weeks and being that the last class was last October I am going to be torn on what to do. Postpone one or the other. I’m wondering too maybe they might have multiple smaller classes because of the social distancing and they might not all start at once . Idk I’m just speculating ..  

Hey I also received a canvas letter to be submitted by July 31. I already sent out what they requested. Does anyone know how long the process might take and when the classes might start or have they mentioned when the class was anticipated to start ? 

Hello everyone. I haven’t been on the forums for a while (since I was hired as a Station Agent in 2017). I just added myself back on the list with DCAS . I declined the provisional title and the permanent title back in late 2018. I was pregnant and unable to take the job at that time . My list number is 7xx and in reading a lot on this thread I see that they have passed my number for some time. I believe I get put on the top of the list since they have passed my number but I’m not sure. I see too that the last class was in October which a friend of mine is in. His list number was 3xx and he said the process was pretty fast. What should I expect If I haven’t done the drug test yet? What happens now ? Thanks 

Well she's approximating from the last test. And also this test requires a drivers license and its a big requirement to have a drivers license

A lot of people will definitely be eliminated because they don't have a drivers licence. During my test when people were asked to put in their drivers licence number at least 4 people stated they didn't have one . It showed that it was a requirement by December of 2016. I guess people felt they would able to get one later ? That isn't how it works though. I'm sure that maybe about a third of people may not meet the requirements such as having a licence to begin with or having a valid or clean licence . I work for the DMV and you would be surprised how bad people's driving records are especially when so many agencies can suspend your license for things like child support or failure to pay NYS taxes or even an out of state ticket that you don't take care of .
