Bus maintenance

It’s usually 2-3 weeks with the short staffing in the office….what’s your list number?

thanks for the info.
I’m not on the list.  I’m actually applying for a position with the bus company. No one has yet to address my concerns.

Hi all.  I read that it usually takes 48-72 hours to get your drug results back. Has anyone experienced a delay in this?

I took the urine test last week and I haven’t received anything back yet.

deeply concerning.

Hi all,

I went for day 1 of processing on Monday 4/18. I'm still waiting for results of my urine test and it's been exactly a week. Did anyone get it around the same time? And if so, did you get your results yet? For everyone else, how long does it normally take. In their invitation for day 1 of processing it mentioned 48-72 hours.  Please help.

Hey everyone

I was wondering , has anyone actually ever got invited to an exam for a job you applied for with a “passed prescreening “ application status? 
I’m asking because I recently applied for Attendant Terminal Appearance and I saw I passed the prescreening. However , I also applied for Coach Cleaner back in August and took the test in December and my application was and still is “Applied” .

So I applied for a position and they called me in for a multiple choice test, written exam, and interview all done on the same day. Three weeks later, I got a call to schedule for day 1 of processing. They said to wait 48 - 72 hours for the drug test results to proceed to day 2. This is where I am at right now. 

Greetings Everyone.

I don't want to sound like a noob but I have a question in regards to MTA's employment posting. I've been looking at the postings for some time and I'm seeking for some clarification on their compensation.

What is the difference between when they mention minimum salary, mid, and compression?

I'm under the impression that minimum salary is what is being offered to new employees and compression is what's being offered to current employees of the mta? Then what exactly is mid?

Any help is highly appreciative and thanks in advance.

Completed S&D today. How soon do they notify you the results of the test? I understand that a pool must be established but at least the results will come in before that.

I just RSVP my S&D overview for the second weekend of August. I guess everything is starting to move again. 

Just testing out the waters here, has anyone heard anything yet?

All HR said was that we were "in the pool" for the next Phase 2 class. This really puts my life on hold. Do I plan my next vacation? Do I make plans to further my career at my current job? Do I go to my family reunion in October (in another state)? So many other things that I need time in order to plan properly.

This is just unfortunate.

My wife works for the city and they're facing furloughs and lay offs in October.  Even after everything is all done they're going to bring the furloughs back first before they can get to us.

In response to your question, keep going with what you have.  I went back to school in the meantime before this whole thing blows over. 

Plan your vacation and plan your family reunion.  This is going to take awhile.

Not yet, did you?

Any new updates on more phase 1 classes?

All i had was the phase 1 interview over the phone (this was about two months ago) since it ended early on Monday 3/16.  That was the day everything shut down. 

Good morning folks.  I found an attachment in the download section to this forum.  - "LIRR Rules of the Operating Department" - Are those the signals that need to be memorize to verbatim for the s&d overview?

I have also found the definitions handbook from an unknown website.  It gave definitions, duties & responsibilities, terminology, authorized abbreviations, general rules. Altogether 127 pages. Bottom of the booklet states GO202.  Do I need to memorize the entire book for the S&D?

Any advice will be helpful.  I'm still waiting from HR on when I can go in for the s&d overview due to Covid-19.

Thanks!

Oh wow!  When Lucille emailed me the other day, saying that I'll be emailed be back in a few weeks for interview. I have a feeling at this point a few weeks is probably going to be a month at the earliest considering everything going on. 

I just got the email from her stating that they are going to proceed to signals and definition!

Just need to wait it until they are able to proceed.

I just took my cognitive and Vocabulary last Monday.  Unfortunately they postponed the exploratory interviews because of the virus.  They actually mentioned that it will be done over the phone.

1.  Had any experience this type of delay before?

2.  If so, how soon after the test does it take for them to reach out?

Thanks in advance.  Always appreciate it.
