B/O 4600 Hiring Process


Message added by +Young+

BUS OPERATOR #4600

List Status Update: 1/16/22 The list for this specific exam has been extended to January 6th, 2024.

Training: See the DOB New Hire FAQ topic for more information.

Next Scheduled Class: You will be scheduled with candidates of more recent Bus Operator exams (which are pinned), so check those threads for more information.

For those of you who wish to restore your name to the list, you must do so by sending an e-mail to certificationunit@dcas.nyc.gov. In your e-mail, state your full name, exam number, list number, the last four of your social security number, and a brief reason why you're restoring your name to the list. You don't have to go into full detail in the e-mail.

For those who will be reporting to Livingston Street in the future, click here for the pre-employment packet and click here or for extra pages of the CPD-B booklet (if you need them) for final processing.

Next, for those of you who are still waiting, you folks might want to check out this and this YouTube video. In addition, if you need help getting your Class B CLP (Commercial Learner's Permit), I would encourage you to check out cristcdl.com which is free!! Remember, the multiple-choice tests you need to take and pass, at minimum, are General Knowledge, Air Brakes and Passenger Endorsement.

Finally, if you need to make an appointment at the DMV to take the multiple-choice examinations for your Commercial Learner's Permit, click here.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. We're here to help each other.

Good luck!

Nope cause every time there was a court date the cop was on vacation. The most recent date back in April the cop didn’t show... so now I gotta wait till January for the next court date 

if 18 month pass and they don’t find you guilty you wouldn’t  get the point but you will have to pay the fine

The list is over ? I just reinstated my name will they call me or just go start on the next list 

This list doesn't expire until the year 2020. The way the poster worded it made it sound like the list would terminate on the date they are supposed to report.

As long as they are not pending , they usually disregard anything past 3 years but you should still list it regardless . You don’t want any surprises .

And I emphasize a lot of stuff...picking depots should be the last thing on your mind. Offhand, are you familiar with the handouts that one of the instructors let his students borrow? It's a little outdated, but I'm sure between back then (2014) and today, they still use the same Orion VII buses for the initial 7-day training...

Click here for a list of substances they test for. Now in my case, although I've tested negative each and every time, they may have found other things, such as caffeine or over-the-counter drugs, such as Tylenol, but that's acceptable.
