I have two red camera violations. Will that affect me when its time for appointment? 

It shouldn’t if you pay it ... they can’t prove you were the driver but you do need to have it paid off asap if I were you 

Anybody know what was the  highest list number reached for this August class ?

Nice I’m 13xx for firefighter

Goes by the fifth digit in your SSN.  Now if people have the same score and same SSN digit not sure how it works then. Birth date maybe?

Wow I’m lucky my  5th digit is a 0 

I’m 93 in the high 700s I’m sure there’s is 93s in th 1000s all depends on your SSN

Yeah that’s what I’m wondering... I went June 1st ....? 

Reply back to the email and let them know .. I inquired about a similar situation my list number is in the low 700 but from I will be gone for 2 months ( Sept, and Oct ) so I reached out in case my number is called why I’m away they just said to tell them that I’m not ready at the time if they call me

just finished all my paper work and was worried about the arrest record section too, don't have any tickets so i can't comment on that part. When I was there they told me to just list what i had, i put down my arrest date, charges, the court and the outcome and i gave them the disposition papers.

Just make sure you dont have anything open or pending. If you were arrested tell them and give a disposition paper, they said everything is good and I start in the next class.

Nice congrats what’s your list number

When is the August class?

I heard August 12

I just got some intel guys ... I went to pre employment on 6/1 I’m list number 7xx

There they told us we were being considered for the July 9th class, turns out that’s change, with my list number I may or may not even be reachable for the  August class 

I was told they are only up to list number 228

Hey guy , for those that haven’t yet gone to pre employment but received the packets ... like mentioned above account for all gaps, if unemployed just write unemployed don’t give an explanation, I did they asked me to cross it out 

as far as the employers contact try googling they said they mainly care for the current and last employer so don’t stress over the contact info 

Anyone know how many orientation classes they held so far.. i attended the one on Friday 6-1

Things to remember for pre-employment...

1. Photo ID

2. Social Security card

3. Birth certificate 

4. High School Diploma/official transcript with raised seal

5. NO GAPS in employment dates...dates must overlap (ended job a in March but started job b in April would be a gap).

6. Prepare for a long ass day...I was there 13 ½ hours today...longest wait was for drug test. (MTA employees going for random tests take precedent and will hold up the candidates waiting).

7. Listen to the instructions, and ask questions when you have them...

8. Doors open at 07:00...try to get there before then...

9. RELAX...

Wow what time didn’t you arrive? I was out at 11:20am  today

07/09 is the class.  06/05 I go for medical 

Nice congrats ... I would assume it is at that point where they give you an offer of employment?

What class are you eligible for ? I went to pre employment today and said we are being consider for a class going in July 9th

Your best bet is to always show up early. The earlier you get in the earlier you get out. Most times there’s a line even when you show up at 6:30 for a 7:30 time. But good thing the weather is breaking cause i’ve been out there at times on a line in the dead cold. 

 

THE THINGS YOU DO FOR MTA!

Yup... I was here at 6:40 and there was a decent size line .. glad I came early 

Okay thanks I’ll be there really early 

Hey guys would anyone be able to tell me if there is parking at the pre employment location at 180 Livingston? 

And what’s the pay for yard

So funny you say that. I just started college and was in a groove (4.0 GPA) but idk how I will be able to finish now. I'm not leaving this money on the table so I'm gonna have to drop out. 

You don’t have to drop out but consider it taking a break until you can get back even if it’s onine classes it tooo me 8 years to get this 4 year degree but I finally did it 

I graduate from college on Wednesday but I’m more looking forward to the pre employment date than my commencement
