Awesome. 

That date seems to be a tentative date for Train Operators from exam 7604. Bus Operators (I am assuming you are a prospective one from the posts in the Exam 1100 thread) would have different class dates.

Please edit your post so that your list number looks like 428x or 42xx. When you post your complete number you basically post your identity.

One more question if you don’t mind answering if I go through the conductor process will I still get called for track worker too or will that get thrown out? I’m honestly ready to leave the job I’m at now I just would prefer track worker 

 

Per other posts I've seen on this forum, your Track Worker list number would not be thrown out if you go through the pre-employment process for Conductor.

I did take both train conductor and track worker exams and got the same score for both. It’s just the conductor list is so much longer and wasn’t expecting to get called for it. All emails and info I’ve been getting has been for track worker I wanted to know if I show up to the appointment would they being sending me in to be a conductor or a track worker or at least have an option?  I think I prefer track work instead of conductor. Im in the early 900’s list number for track work but somewhere in the 4600’s for conductor. But I’ll email them today see what they say 

Well I know they are in the 4000's for canvassing the conductor list. Not sure what number they are at for track worker.

I just got called to go down to Livingston to do a drug test but it changed from track worker to conductor is that normal? 

It may have been an error. Did you take the Conductor 6601 exam? If you are on both lists then that could be a possibility. Otherwise it was probably an error. Email the exam unit.

Hey guys just got the email for my appointment next week, for the application my first job was in 2015 but I graduated from HS in 2014 does that time period count as unemployed?

Yes. Anything from HS graduation and on you must put down. Just mark the time from graduation until you started your first job as unemployed. If you were a college student or in some sort of training program put "Unemployed - Attending college" or something along those lines.

They may not have a list together until a date closer to the tentatively scheduled November 15th class. Just pe patient. That is over 3 weeks away now. Like @Schecter pointed out, they have been calling former TSS's out of retirement to head schoolcar classes so that could prolong waiting times as well. I would say if you've already passed medical and are just waiting for a class that is already a win. You could also just keep reaching out to the numbers and emails you're already contacting for updated info when it is available to them.

Hello,

Has anyone encountered issues creating their Saf-Gard account to order their boots?  I have reached out to Saf-Gard and they told me my pass number is not on an eligible list to order. Is there someone I could email from NYCT to assist with this? I have reached out to HROrientation@nyct.com and have not gotten a response yet.

Earlier in this thread people have mentioned having issues with them. Try going back to read what advice was given.

I have medical tomorrow for November class 

is there way of changing the November class to December or January class.

 

Maybe ask them when you show up for the medical. When I got called for medical I was asked if I could commit to the upcoming class date or else they would have me come in at a later date.

Hey, I have a question. I was looking at DCAS and my list number was originally 704# but I’m not sure about the certification number that I have is the new list number I’m placed at ? The certificate number is 43xx

Your list number does not change. In your case it is still 704x. The certification number is for people currently being considered for the job. There is always an allotment of list numbers that are certified. Only those list numbers that have been certified will be picked from at that time.

Hey for the email to request an appointment date to go back to finish medical I know they ask for full name ,exam number, list number, and last four of your social but do you actually have to type requesting new appointment date for medical? (sorry if this sounds like a dumb question)

It wouldn't hurt to be specific like that.

Thanks, how long do u think it will take to get to the 7000's.

That may be a while. At the earliest some time next year; but that is assuming they continue to hire off the list at the same breakneck pace as they are now.

I just got the date for the Processing Day 1!!

- how long was the wait between Day 1 (drug test)  and Day 2 (medical day)?

- why were you placed on a medical hold?  would pre-existing conditions puts us on hold?

THX~

It could be 3-90 days between drug testing day 1 and medical day 2 but it seems they are hiring faster so may be more like a week or so...but that is just an educated guess.

I was placed on hold for neck size and high BMI. I have to do sleep apnea testing. I am up for Conductor but the same applies for Train Operators.

If your blood pressure is high or your neck size is over 17 inches or BMI higher than 32? (I do not remember the exact number) then you may be placed on medical hold.

I have read that some people have just taken doctor's notes explaining pre-existing conditions and the kept them from being placed on hold. I have also read people saying the opposite occured and they were still placed on hold. 

Before medical you will fill out paperwork that asks about pre-existing conditions and what you may be taking for them. The doctor will also go over that with you once you're there.

I got the email for the pre-employment application last week. Still waiting on the next email or call for date and time to go 180 Livingston Street for Pre Employment processing. Should I just wait or contact them? 

If you got the canvass letter last week and returned the completed paperwork back to them by the deadline in the email then you haven't technically gone through pre-employment yet. 

You will hear back from them about pre-employment and drug testing and that email, text or phone message will have a date and time of your drug test.

Replied to my canvass email to a:  Inderia.Samsundar@nyct.com
.....still no response as to what the date/time is for the processing day. LOLZ. seems like there was as glitch, cuz in my email it didn't state the date/time to show up.
can't believe a glitch is preventing me from a CHANCE to get hired.
hope u guys have better luck!

The canvass email will not give you a date to show up.

The canvass is sent to people whose list numbers are within the alloted amount of applicants to be certified for a certain time. Those applicants will get the canvass email at staggered times. It's basically saying this job that you were interested in may now be available to you. You fill out the forms and send them back.

At some point after that you will get an email for the pre-employment phase which will start with drug testing. That email will state a date and time for you to come in to be tested.

Once that is done (and you do not fail the drug test) you will be contacted again to continue pre-employment by coming in for medical testing. They will give you a 21 page packet of forms to fill out and another date and time to come in for the medical portion.

Should you pass medical you would then be fingerprinted and sworn in. Should you be placed on medical hold [like I was and still am] you will have 100 days from your medical appointment date to clear the hold.

There was an issue with some of the questions. I don't have the letter anymore but I wrote down the new number.  So which number do they follow list or certified? If list then what is the certified number for?

Your list number.

Which number do we go by? My original was 34xx. Then I received a letter saying new number is 28xx. My certification number is currently 24xx.

I've never heard of a list number changing. Double check that that's what you're reading correctly.

nevermind found it!  

I was 2 minutes late getting to you but I'm sure someone else will ask. Use the link here to find your list number. I says 6601 (Conductor) but 7604 Train Operator can be found in it too. 

To find your name click on the search tool 🔍 and type in 7604 and your name. It should show you your list number.

Thank you, do I fill the part out that I’m interested and email it or I can just take to my schedule date?

You reply to the email they sent to you saying that yes you're interested. You will fill the paperwork out and return to the email address they specify in the canvass email. You will bring your completed paperwork with you to your appointment as well.

You can complete the application in Adobe and then print out and sign the pages that need signing and email it back to them OR you can fill the while thing out by hand and then email it back to then. Either way you'll bring a copy with you to give to them at the appointment.
