  1. Your induction date/hire date is the Sunday's date prior to the zoom meeting. Weeks go Sunday thru Saturday. 401K is normally a percentage that you can update/change as you see fit. The goal maker option is what I have. Great choice for market fluctuations and risk management. Talk with the advisor and see what works for you. I signed up the day of my zoom call
  2. School Car is like 4-5 weeks, posting a week then you are on your own.
  3. There is parking. Get there early. Most arrive 45 minutes early. There's parking in the block no issues and there is a parking lot as well
  4. @EASI have bee searching for a backpack too. I've been using the duffle I had in school car and after a week I am over it. Ordered one off Amazon i hope it's big enough. So much stuff lol.
  5. Congratulations!!!!! Zoom call easy. Class will jump right in. Bring a bag for your books and equipment. Bring black pens and a notebook. Lots of reading!! And studying!! You'll climb on to a train from the tracks first week. It's pretty easy just follow what they show you. It's a deal breaker, if you can't you will be chopped. Hands on will start week 2 but lots, lots, lots of reading. Classes will be 7-3 first week or so at the MTA school in Brooklyn. Then you'll be at the yards. Road ops last 2 weeks. Midterms 1 written, multiple choice and a yard practical. Final, multiple choice too and a road practical. This is the basics. Keep in touch, you'll do fine. I was in the May class. I'm out on the road now in A division for a week now! It's pretty cool. Congratulations again!!! You'll do great!!!
  6. Duffle bags for school car. No shoulder straps. A back pack if the straps can be removed and/or carry it by the top handle they sometimes have
