[beanz]

They are probably just gonna hit all the people that appealed and won. It's cool at least it's moving.

Promos should be done if they’re calling open competitive. They passed the 700s for meds too.

Yeah but like me, there were others that deferred cause we were not ready to start when they first called so they have to start and consider those with lower list number if they ready to start now 

 

i was hoping to start April 29th but they won’t reach my number for this class

Idk, they seemed to call quite a few 600s and the like for deferrals before. I’m going to call Vargas and see whats up.

Definitely just checked, the 20 person class is correct just rough having to have to fill out that paper work all over again at least they give copies of the one that was already filled out on the initial visit. I know should forget about the job for now and let the process take its course but sheesh am i hungry for this position or what.

I feel u man. I'm mostly kicking my own ass for not getting just 1 more question right on that test. I would have been working by now. 2 more questions and I would have been coming on a year by now and wouldn't be missing a family reunion in dominican republic this summer cause I'd be able to take the vacation lol. All good tho, life always unfolds as it is supposed to.

Yes I did too. I got a 93.33 on the exam but people with my same score are in schoolcar now bc they had a lower digit on their ss no. Which I kinda get but still feel it’s crap 

Anyways, I feel your pain. Still crazy that arguably the most critical position down there is moving at a much slower pace than other positions we have to hang on bro

I recently won the appeal. My list # is 63.5 due that I had 1 wrong only. My score was 98.333. I received a letter and I'm due to go in March 29. I have 2 pending tickets which would give me 7 points on my license. Does it matter the points ? I was told it doesnt matter as long as I dont owe anything and theres nothing pending

seems like they created this class just to get the promo's/deferrals in since their numbers were already passed over.

 

doesn't mean they'll start back with full hiring mode just taking care of those that was passed over.

You just answered your own question. Those two tickets matter, you can’t have no tickets PENDING. They will put you on hold if you show up until you take care of the tickets. 

You can’t have no tickets pending what so ever.

Yeah like the guy above me said you can't have no pending tickets what so ever, you can't owe the city money while trying to work for the city.

Mta just doesn't want to hire if u owe tickets. Corrections & nypd is the same. But there are plenty of CITY jobs that WILL hire you if u have tickets. My cousin became a firefighter with pending tickets. Every dept is just different.

Scroll up to the top there’s a green banner that has the info there. Or you can scroll through the pages and read the post to see who posted their status and number, I believe it’s in the 800s tho.

Just to offer perspective, there are about 5.5k operators. Within the next 5 years, 75% of operators will retire, others will move up. There'll be a lot of vacancies. For the previous exam, MTA got up to 6k range but with a list extension of another 4 years. I spoke with a 2 year vet who was hired at the end of that list with a list # of 61xx.

Thank you

Does anyone know if there are restrictions as to where you can live? I was considering buying a home in NJ. Will this disqualify me from this job?

I was at 180 Livingston yesterday. Saw the orientation. Looks good. The staff at 180 Livingston are excellent. Very helpful. 

 

Drug test does take a while. Make sure if you have to go that day, don't make any plans. Everyone finished their paperwork by 11am/12pm.  And then you wait to be called into the drug test office and then you wait again to take the test. We waited approx 2 hrs. Out by 2pm. Was there at 7:30.

I went in for bus operator yesterday. There was 2 groups. Train operator and bus operator. I'm also on the train operator list. 

 

This group one of them had a exam score of 6××.  

 

There was approx 25 people for train operator.

 

There is a class at the end of April. ( not sure if allowed to post the date) not everyone will be in that class, they will be short 5 or 6 people who will be added to the following class.

It was a good orientation.
