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!

Never pass your reference point. When in doubt if you need to make the turn, change it to a hook turn. I've done that now while driving out on my own. Good luck, sometimes it's better to have a little more driving.

It's alot easier. You do east harlem, over to the west side and back to east side

 

This is for Day 9. From what I remember back in 2014, for my Day 9, we started out of the 126th Street Depot (located in Harlem) and the furthest South we went was 86th Street, so it'll be easier compared to Union Square.

 

Also, as I previously stated, and other members have confirmed that 75% of the class qualifies on Day 9, so if you screw up, in the long run, don't worry about it.

Thank you..I'm on medical hold. Planning to go back in February after taking care of few personal matters. Hopefully I will have seniority then. If I pass, i want to pick Staten Island.

 

I think the contract is up in January.  If you wait until February to go back, you may lose some of the benefits in the current contract.  I got my hold resolved in two days, so hopefully I'm on board before the contract finishes up.

what did they place you on hold for if you mind me asking?

Just qualified right now on day 7. Thank you to everyone who has helped out with any questions asked in this thread.
