You need at least a 96, with a list number 3000 or less to have a real shot. For T/O you may have a chance. But both of these exams are at theier last legs, as they're expiring this year and next year. A new C/R exam is being offered this year. The next T/O exam should be coming out next year.

jmart10 Posted April 18, 2015 Share #3766 Posted April 18, 2015 I am new here. What does CR, TO and TA stand for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
train1290 Posted April 19, 2015 Share #3767 Posted April 19, 2015 Welcome, C/R stands for Conductor, T/O stands for Train Operator, and T/A Stands for Transit Authority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmart10 Posted April 19, 2015 Share #3768 Posted April 19, 2015 So you need to pretty much have a perfect score to have a chance as a CR. Are there other positions where the odds are better? (not bus driver) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubwayGuy Posted April 20, 2015 Share #3769 Posted April 20, 2015 So you need to pretty much have a perfect score to have a chance as a CR. Are there other positions where the odds are better? (not bus driver) The tests are not hard. Just don't overthink the questions, and as long as you have a good grasp of English, no learning disabilities, and basic math skills, getting 96 or better won't be a challenge. The reality is the key is just getting your foot in the door if you want to work down here. Take any test, and then move around. it's always easier to promote than to get hired from outside since you get priority for promotional lists vs. open competitive applicants (for tests such as T/O where the exams are offered both in and out of house), plus it opens up more opportunities to promote to titles that don't hire from outside (such as towers).

OFlow Posted April 20, 2015 Share #3771 Posted April 20, 2015 @knyce34 your drug test is good for 90 days however when u go back to finalize the employment process and do your hearing and vision u will most likely be given another drug test. Just stay patient you will be called Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdeford Posted May 21, 2015 Share #3773 Posted May 21, 2015 I got a letter to go in for drug test and some paperwork.on April 23. It is now exactly 4 weeks later and still no word though when i call the DCAF number the current list number is 3201 and my list number is 3305 it used to say I was on an outstanding certification now since I got the letter it says I'm not currently on outstanding certification. And I don't do any drugs or anything so a fail it's impossible. Just wondering how long the follow up call takes.Or if they still go by the numbers.I figured my number was called when I got the letter. Still optimistic I'll get called just the wait is driving me crazy. Any one have any similar experiences or had a long wait?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knyce34 Posted May 27, 2015 Share #3774 Posted May 27, 2015 @tdeford most likely your gonna have to take 2 drug test And a medical b4 your hired.it a long process basically a waiting game. I took my dt on march 12 i just got called to take another this week so you can see how slow the process is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took my dt on march 12 i just got called to take another this week so you can see how slow the process is At least you're in the pipeline. The tentative fileling date for the new conductor test begins on September 5 2015. 8094 ends February 2016. So all of you hopefuls if you have started the process you are sure to get called. It looks like transit may go down to the wire with this list. I believe they extended this list by 1 year already. So good luck to all of you. And if they don't reach your number, the next test is around the corner. The upcoming tests are: station agent, conductor, and train operator.
