Jll2908 Posted November 2, 2018 Share #1277 Posted November 2, 2018 I am nervous about the credit report section of the background check. I don't have any delinquent accounts but I do have some manageable debt. If all else checks out would my debt hinder me from moving forward? My background is clean there is no bankruptcy, no liens or judgements, no criminal record, no moving violations... just wondering how much the credit report is taken into consideration. This process is nerve wracking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misslo Posted November 2, 2018 Share #1278 Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) Is it safe to withdraw my application since I did not move passed the Sept 27 orientation? Edited November 2, 2018 by misslo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extremely safe, the beginning stage was pretty much part of the hiring process. If you did not move past 9/27 you’ll have to reapply next year when the test is available again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they said if you fail you have to wait a full year before applying again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s only if you pass all 3 tests will you get to that point . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

London bridge is Posted November 8, 2018 Share #1284 Posted November 8, 2018 (edited) Last question because.. I'm annoying like that =). How strict is that credit check? If anyone has any insight.. I don't think I'm going to make it through the credit check because I may have a account in collect. Thanks anyway. And wish and hope the best to everyone who's made it Edited November 8, 2018 by London bridge is 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHP87 Posted November 8, 2018 Share #1285 Posted November 8, 2018 Does anyone know in what order individuals are placed on the roster when their in the same class? It seems like a tough break to be number 24 and have 23 of your classmates ahead of you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have you pick envelopes out of a hat, and inside that envelope is your new roster number. So, basically, it’s random. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTAHopeful813 Posted November 9, 2018 Share #1288 Posted November 9, 2018 (edited) Does anyone recall where the entrance to the hillside facility is located? I’m looking on google street view and don’t see an actual entrance? There is a ramp entrance with a guard station on 183rd for authorized vehicles by liberty avenue, is that the entrance? I’m due at 8:00am tomorrow and didnt want to be late looking around for it. Edited November 9, 2018 by MTAHopeful813 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are you coming from? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only provided an S&D preview and a invitation letter with the address 93-59 183rd street, Hollis NY, at Hillside support facility stating to be there at 8:00am sharp. That’s why I assumed driving was best. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronHorse Posted November 9, 2018 Share #1292 Posted November 9, 2018 G3t to Jamaica station and take a train east to Hillside. They leave off of track 8. Ask the usher.

MTAHopeful813 Posted November 10, 2018 Share #1294 Posted November 10, 2018 Not sure how many people on here were in the S&D overview but damn. New respect for those that passed, finished creating all my cards and spent the whole evening trying to memorize the first 6 definitions and feel like I’m not getting anywhere. placing it verbatim is the struggle. Highly discouraged right now, feel like I wasted a day of studying time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never did more then like 4 definitions a day, maybe start with signals, if you do stop signal and restricting before you know it you got about 15 down in a matter of 30 min, just a little confidence boost lol. but keep at it I felt like that when I started too, you got 5 weeks use all the time you can to study Good luck! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toughest thing I had to do in my life, 3-4 hours a day keep grinding, 4 deffinitions and 6-7 signals a day, that will leave you with like a week and a half for review, you can do it ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
