Got the call! For frame of reference I had my S&D in February 2020 and interviewed in March 2020. 

Wow, seems like they're backed up.   Has anyone who had their S&D test on 9/11 this year been contacted yet?

I had my open house October 2019.  I was then invited to the signals and definitions overview in December and then had my signals and definitions test February 15th. 5 weeks to study.  Passed the test and was then brought in for an interview in Jamaica on March 12th with Lucille and a road foreman.  I emailed Lucille in April once I saw that they were resuming with a phase one class on April 29th and she said to keep an eye out because they hold phase one trainings several times a year.  There was a couple people on this thread who started that phase one in April (thats how i knew it was resuming) class but had their interviews in late September early October so the rest of us are definitely behind in terms of order if that how they do things.  I have not heard anything since but then also got confirmation that the Phase 2 for July was cancelled from someone I know who is an engineer.  So they are on hold with trainings and hiring except for some admin/management jobs for now.  Hope it opens up soon.

thanks for the info.  hope everything goes back to normal soon

has anyone heard anything recently?  Had my open house back in Feb, but seems like everything is on hold at the moment

A lot of patience will be required. 

I just finished orientation and am starting phase II from 11/17's application, and that was after years of applying.

It's one of those positions you apply for and then live your life like you never applied for it until they call you. Wish you the best!


I will say, as free advice for when you make it, get a W2 showing every year of employment you have on your resume. The background check company they hire will ask for some documentation that is quite burdensome, such as a W2 from 10 years ago over Christmas break, followed by a government shutdown.

The last thing you want is to have that kind of stress while you're studying up to your eyeballs.

alright great, thanks for the info.  Guess i'll have to play the waiting game

Good afternoon everyone,

I have been reading this forum for a little bit now, but just decided to sign up.  I'm currently a federal employee, but looking to get into the railroad industry (either city or lirr).  Has anyone applied for the most recent LIRR locomotive engineer trainee position?  I submitted my application on 11/27/18, and i was wondering if others here applied to this opening as well? If so, have you heard anything ?

Thank you,

-Nick
