I've been researching MTA Jobs and so far the only one that seems to appeal to me is that of the train dispatcher. Unfortunately, it seems like the job (even the assistant train dispatcher role) is not available to non-MTA employees.
So i'm just wondering how anyone who's not a current employee might get the job, if they would have to be a train operator first and then try to get promoted to the asst dispatcher role
or if anyone can apply. If the latter is the case, could anyone please provide advice on how to go about that? What to study for the test, and if possible an account of the day to day operations of the job.
Thanks a lot in advance,
PS: This is the job role i am interested in:
