Will-Bx-718 Posted July 11, 2012 Share #1454 Posted July 11, 2012 How long after passing the drug test do they call you back for the interview and medical? There is no set time to them calling you back. When I got hired in 2006, they called me back in 2 days to come back in for final processing. As Donald stated it took them 5 months to get back in touch with him. It all depends on how accurate your information is, and how fast your urine clears of narcotics.

YDove C. Posted July 13, 2012 Share #1456 Posted July 13, 2012 Can someone please explain to me why they decide to switch my class from A to B Division?! We're 3 days fresh out on our own on the road, enjoying the A Division. Now we have to report back to the Learning Center to qualify for B Division. Straight freaking madness! I don't wanna go!

Snowblock Posted July 13, 2012 Share #1458 Posted July 13, 2012 That happens a lot. I hear stories all the time about brand new employees getting drafted. You gotta EARN some seniority in order to stay put. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you have 2 divisions under your belt. Not alot of folks have that. More choices for you. I will warn you, B division is a huge world with many different places to report, or jobs to do. Just let me know when you go posting so I can make some green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been on my own for the past 3 days. It's just crazy how they shafted us like that. My class was originally 20ppl started off in the A Div. Then a few weeks later they split us, seniority choice, 10 into B Div. Now we're all B Div. Seriously I was luv'n the A Div. I had plans to move to the Bronx from Qns now I can't. Ugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowblock Posted July 14, 2012 Share #1462 Posted July 14, 2012 Have you posted the B as well? You can't just go into that blind, especially with things like the new 205 relay that you need to learn from someone who knows the line. And uptown jobs are the last to go in the B, so you should still be able to get some BPK, 207 and 168 for your first pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you serious?! That's crazy Just to give everyone else a heads up, my class is all B division. It was 21 of us that was split into 2 classes. I honestly thought we would get A division but realize that the class before us was suppose to become B and ended up A and my class is now B. Highest list number in the class is in the low seven hundreds (70x). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowblock Posted July 14, 2012 Share #1465 Posted July 14, 2012 I'm pretty sure it's gonna take longer than a week to post B-Div....you gotta do EVERY line, even though they do things like have you do the E/J and N/Q in the same day. I put in my G2 to go to B-Div next pick myself, so I'll get to share in the fun as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres a shortage of C/R's as Julio said you have no Control over that you just have to go(of course if theres a hardship issues I.E Children, Family) that could be a case not sure though.

And how are the paychecks messed up? I recieved mine already with my direct deposit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
