Exam 6601 Conductor 6601 Hiring Process

I got the Cats and they're def comfortable. Was gonna originally go with the Timbs, but they're insulated, so that would've sucked in the summer. -

That's what's up bro. The beauty of following this forum! Wish I was hip to it before being called in for medical to avoid having to be placed on med hold for apnea and delaying my employment since '21...see you on the 10th! -

I was thinking the same think. I got my foot already in the door and last thing I want to do is shoot myself in the foot by losing this MTA chance just to try and get into LIRR and possibly not even getting in. Ty! -

Good Afternoon All!... Would like some advice/input. I've already been appointed to the April 10th class(congrats to all who will be there). Would you disregard an email inviting you to the 2nd round of the hiring process to become an Assistant Conductor for the LIRR? Been waiting close to 8 yrs for the MTA, but wondering if LIRR would be the better choice of the two as far as pension, union and such. -

Speaking for myself: I too already have a set schedule when it comes to family shit(father of 2 young ones), etc. BUT I'll rearrangement my whole life for a chance to work for the MTA. My current job is shit, I don't have any family hookups and was not born with a silver spoon in my mouth, so by any means necessary to secure a good career for my family's livelihood. -

I felt this comment... lol been outta HS since '02 and have had a shit load of jobs in-between lol thankfully been at my current job for 11. I would try to remember a name and write the # and pray for the best. IMO, that's better than leaving it blank. -

34XX. Should've been employed back in 2021, but got a big ass neck and got placed on med hold cuz of sleep apnea and did not come off it until 2022. And did not make the cutoff(by a week) when they recertified the list. Been close to a decade wait for me, so hopefully my family and I have the happy ending we deserve to have. -

Went for pre-employment on the 15th. Nothing else was asked from me, aside from the letter asking me to return back on Fri. They move super quick once you get called in for pre-employment. -

I wouldn't give up hope until the list fully expires. I did my medical just about a year ago and still waiting to be called again. Had to get my # restore on the list and like Harlem said, they really are taking forever calling ppl from the new certified list. -

If you can speak loud and clear, you should get a passing grade on the OPA. Just a waiting game at this point. Now, if you're a low talker that stutters/mumbles, chances are you did not pass the Oral Proficiency. That's why they added the OPA part to this test bc you had/got a lot of Conductors that are very hard to understand when they speak. -

Got my name restored back on 4/19 due to not showing up for medical, but didn't show up since I didn't have enough data to clear my med hold(from my first medical appt) at that time smh. Still waiting and Ohla said to keep waiting when I called her a month ago. Gonna try again next week. List# 34xx. -

I called them regarding this. I got my reinstatement letter back on 4/19(was on med hold). Lady said I "missed the cutoff". Said they're going off the active list that's active until 4/4. Going to assume that you and I should be on the next list they establish. -
