Oh trust me, I know all about the nepotism in that place. I have a few friends from high school there. Finding the application is like a needle in a haystack. From what im told, they cant keep anyone. For some, the travel is too far from the other boroughs.
My application was put in a year ago for SIR Conductor (Jan 2019), and exactly one year later, its still in "passed Prescreening" Todays date it 02/03/2020
