NYC Transit and its associated subsidiaries (collectively, NYC Transit) have tens of thousands of employees, many of whom interact with the public directly or work in safety- sensitive positions. To ensure that new employees are qualified and suitable for such positions, NYCT requires candidates to consent to a verification process that includes a criminal background check.
Two groups conduct background checks for distinct sets of NYC Transit employees:
• The New York City Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS) is responsible for examining the criminal records of individuals in certain civil service titles, ranging from Bus and Train Operators and Station Agents to Administrative Engineers. Based solely on its review of these criminal records, DCAS decides to conduct a broader review of the claimed education and experience for only a relatively small number of these employees.
• NYCT’s Background Investigations Unit (BIU) is responsible for examining hires in the remaining positions. BIU checks all non-civil service employees. Additionally, apart from criminal records checked by DCAS, BIU is by default responsible for vetting most civil service hires’ backgrounds—except those for whom DCAS decides to do a broader review. In other words, BIU is supposed to verify the reported education and work experience for most new employees.

Packet being reviewed about what? They didn’t give you any other information? Did you have any pending tickets? Criminal convictions? Any information they asked for that you did not put in?

No other information and no like I stated before I’ve never been arrested and the last summons I received was in 2013 and that was dismissed. I did find information online. I’ll post it now.

@N3Gro hoping all goes well, I, too share those sentiments.

Life is crazy because I was hoping to push back my training to the 24th of April. So for now I’ll remain positive. No way I don’t get the job after all I’ve been through.

Hey everyone. So I had a rather interesting day. Everything was smooth sailing up until I walked up to window #3 after seeing the doctor and handing in my packet. As I waited for my packet to be reviewed and someone to call me up to then be finger printed I was told my packet was under review and that someone would be reaching out to me via phone call or email. Now I’m a bit bummed but I know I’ll be fine because I have no criminal history, a clean drivers license and abstract and really nothing to be concerned about. I’m thinking maybe because I listed so many jobs in a short term period it’s due to that ( I work construction ) so it’s not uncommon. Anyways I’ll keep you guys posted.
