B/O 4600 Hiring Process

[mastap123]

4 ft of space is very very very very important. Get your 4 feet of space and in busy streets with a lot of traffic take up 2 lanes if need be. I do it a lot especially on Northern Blvd, which my routes I drive go on. I can't tell u how many times I would have taken someone's car door out if I didn't have 4 feet of space lol. These knuckleheads just open their car door without checking the street behind them probably 10 times a day lol.

 

thanks i appreciate it is that something that can cause you to not qualify

It probably was...I was the only person in the room dressed like that since most of the other open-competitive people were in either shoes, dress pants, wearing a tie, etc.

you gonna be in the august 7 class

you gonna be in the august 7 class

 

First, thanks for the words of encouragement.

 

Second, I'm not going to be in the August 7th Class. Back in February of 2014, I failed the 10-day training session and I have to wait [5] years, February of 2019 to try again. The reasons why I was down there today was because I received an invitation to come down for the MTA Bus Co. Exam #7304 Part-Time position, I had off from work, and some of the people who I was talking to, who are members and guests of the site, encouraged me to go down. However, after asking the HR Representative about the 5-year rule, she said that the rule still applies, therefore I knew all of that was just going to be a waste of not only my time, but also taking off from work unnecessarily as well.

 

Good luck with the August 7th Class!! Keep us posted!!

how is it so far and how was the training

for me training was somewhat intense. Everyone is different and so are the instructors. But they do want us to do and be clear of one thing. Safety! Some are easy going while hearing from others in my class very militant. Good luck. Any other questions feel free to ask.

just keep in mind that whatever depot you choose in queens your there until the end of career 

on the qualifying days does it have to be perfect in order to qualify

Yes. You have to be perfect on Days 6 & 7 in order to qualify.

 

If not, your second chance will be on Day 9, which is a repeat of Day 5 (no highway).

 

If not, your third and final chance, with two Superintendents, will be on Day 10. What's nice about days 8, 9 & 10 is no pre-trip, no backing up, etc. (they will make you do bus stops). Also, from what I remember, a good 75% of the people pass on Day 9 with the different instructor. Also, there is no highway for Days 8 & 9. For Day 10, you will be going on I-95 N/B to the last exit in the Bronx and back.

Click here. Should be self-explanatory. If not, feel free to ask any questions you may have!!

Pass ID is our metro card? Also are we responsible for the uniform or do we get an allowance for that?

Yes, that is correct. During the 10-day training, you will be responsible for your own uniform with no allowance (they'll tell you what to wear at Livingston Street). After you pass the 10-day training, you will be measured for your uniform and you'll continue to wear your 'temporary' uniform until your regular one arrives in the mail.

[mastap123]

Yes. You have to be perfect on Days 6 & 7 in order to qualify.
