Do Access-A-Ride Drivers get hired before others on the mta bus operator exam?

I was wondering if access a ride drivers get priority over everyone else on the mta bus operator exam? is it on any mta exam? or is it not true!!

Access A Ride operations are contracted to various carriers, and as such not a direct operation of the MTA. As such the issue of priority here is non existent.

He's asking if being an Access-A-Ride driver bumps up your list number after your score on any MTA exam is calcuated (like how being a veteran gets you a higher list number)

Lol, yeah, sorry, I have no idea myself. I've never heard of it being true, but that doesn't mean anything.

No bump up for being an (access a ride op )there are co -workers from Mta bus workin in TA&OA depots and they have start at the bottom the only credit they received didn't have to the seven days qualification .sorry bro..

No one gets priority over another person on a civil service exam except for if your score higher than someone else. Like was mentioned before you could be working MTA Bus Company and go into TA/OA bus or in Subways and you'd have to start all the way at the bottom in seniority and in your pension since MTA Bus or Acess-A-Ride don't use NYCERD for their pensions.
