I was just invited to the June Open House. Is the exam a written/oral/ computer exam? if you pass the cognitive and vocabulary exam does anyone know what type of interview it is? do you need to be prepared to answer any mechanical questions in regard to operation and movement of train?  Any insight as to what the interview is like? (1 on 1 or panel?).  

Thanks

The exam is a cognitive and verbal exam. They are evaluating your cognitive reasoning ability and your ability to interpret different words. It is a written test. You don't need to answer any mechanical questions. And the interview is an exploratory interview. They just want to meet you and get to know a little about you. It's a fairly simple interview.

Hahahah roadayway worker 😂 that one was the easiest for me jk I’m glad to hear you did good  might be to late for me to get into the May phase 1 class ya think ? 

I think so. It took a very long time for me to get to where I am now. I got my phone call for the Phase 1 class just recently. I waited for 3 months to hear something. So don't get discouraged if you don't hear something soon. It definitely is a long process, and patience is key.

Nice , did you have to recite anything on the paper they give you to read ? And did you prepare for interview ? Or ya just that good  lol 

Yes. But it wasn't too bad. It's not like memorizing "Roadway Worker"😄. And I prepared for the interview. I went into the interview with confidence and did my best to thoroughly answer any questions they had for me.

The panel interview wasn't bad. I received my call on January 19 and I had my interview scheduled for February 26th.
