  1. Hello. Could you explain what you mean by go down to DCAS and put your name back on the list? Not sure what that means. Thanks.
  2. Good afternoon. I've been quietly reading and following along. Everything cool until now. Ya'll need to relax a little and not put down others or make them feel stupid just because something seems obvious to you. This forum is here to help everyone, from novice to veteran. It's not just here for you and your crew. Title of this topic is hiring process. The subject lately is off topic and should probably be moved to school car, but not my call. My point is... Only stupid question is the not asked. You intimidate others by your tone and people will be reluctant to ask. Others may be wondering the same question not asked. Thank you everyone for your contribution and participation. All questions are appreciated.
  3. Dang, that's crazy bro. Hate to hear things like that, whether it be for this job or any type of discrimination. Hope this works out for you.
  4. Thanks very much for letting us know. And even if you don't clear by January's class, think positive. You will eventually clear it up and you are 640 ahead of me! 😅
  5. Naw, Vargas told me 800 something and someone else on this thread earlier that went in was 800 something...they are in low to mid 800's. They probably getting 100's of calls a day about the hiring freeze and what number are they up to. It must be driving them nuts 😵
  6. So I spoke to a veteran friend in TA and he said there is no freeze on operating title. I didn’t know what operating title was and he said that means those who provide a service. While this is not official, I’m weighing towards it based on the letter and the need for TO due to retirees and those getting fired/suspended. https://www.google.com/amp/s/nypost.com/2017/09/02/suspensions-dismissals-of-mta-operators-and-conductors-are-rising/amp/
  7. They want work history since high school. That's 23 years for me 🙄. But thanks, I knew someone would have the answer.
  8. I'm good then. Hopefully I wasn't the only one with these OCD questions. Thanks.
  9. Naw you right. I straight over think EVERYTHING I do. Good for my current job, but not life, lol. Ok, got another. This one, not sure if anyone here can answer, but it came up when I looked up the original exam notice as you mentioned online, I found it. It says: One year of full-time satisfactory work experience that has been continuous with one employer. If you have serious moving violations, a license suspension or an accident record, you may be disqualified. I had 2 suspensions. Both for tickets I forgot to pay. 1995 and 1999. And 2 disobey signs. 2017 & 2018. Nothing open. Is this a disqualifier based on the exam notice or up to interviewer?
  10. I see what is, my fault. I was looking at an old exam online. I ask here because there could be some in here that works for TA (For years) applying for promotion to train operator. Someone might actually know the answer. Don't get me wrong, I submit what they want, but at the same time I'm trying to figure out the mindset for when I go in and I'm asked questions. I've actually re-did my application 3 times because I kept finding more information to my work history. I've had over 20 jobs, mostly because of Union work. Finding exact start/finish dates on a 23 year work history ain't that easy. I'm from a school that taught, the only stupid question is the one you didn't ask. I just want to know as much as i can before going in for the interview.
  11. Dang...and somebody quit already? I thought he was doing some actual work that freaked him out.
