Has anyone above the 1200 list number received a pre employment correspondence? For those who have received the corresponence could you confirm the the starting pay rate, would that be 32.14 or 34.12 or a different number ?

Starts at 34.162 and after 231 road days it is 36.24999

Hey I’m with my fourth year with ups so make 40 dollars a hour and time and a half after 8 hours of work I jus receive a letter back from Mta for pre employment is it a good idea for me to leave my job  for Mta ? 

[justmulah]

What’s the range of your list #?

[Fredman0220]

Hello, I received my pre employment letter in which I have to report on 11/16 to start my medical. I understand upon taking employment with MTA you cannot have any pending tickets. Upon my initial visit on 11/16 should that ticket be cleared up by then? Do they look into this stuff during that initial visit or it’s the visit after? Thanks

If i have to guess, only people below 500-600 have a chance at the Nov 26 class.  There should be a Dec class because Ms. Vargas said at my pre-employment that they need to hire 180 people per quarter. Since 41 people are going into the Nov class and there was no Oct class, they gonna need to fill 139 vacancies from Dec until Jan-Feb before a newquarter begins. I'm not sure which months belong to which quarter. It could be fiscal or non-fiscal quarters.

Of course this is all just my own speculation so take it with a grain on salt.

The December class is set for Dec 17

Pay it all off because they will send u home until u get it all taken care of. There was some drama last time because they tried to send a bunch of us home because we owed tickets, but some of us were able to pay them online right away and the dude tried to act like it wasn't acceptable. He finally gave in and let us stay but we almost lost time because of tickets. 

 

I even went so far as to plead guilty on a traffic violation even tho the officer herself told me to plead not guilty. The hearing wasn't until December 18th so I'm not gonna wait and put off the process over 135 bucks and 2 points. 

 

So Yea, if u can just pay everything u owe off before pre-employment.

Thanks so much. Do you know if the points matter or as long as your license is valid you should be good?

Nah as far as I know the points don't matter but I was there all the way back in June so I don't remember if that's 100 percent accurate.

Points don't matter for train operator. For bus u can't have more than 4pts

[JoseL1992]

Does any one have the answer to this ? 

Can I defer after the original list has been established and I been canvassed ? 

The reason why I ask if because I was under the impression that you can but after speaking with someone at DCAS i was told that i can not reinstate my name was i go inactive, sometimes there may be employees that don’t necessarily have the facts straight so I’m asking if any of you fellas or ladies have had to defer I’m list 79x

I have pre employment medical on 11/16. What are they looking for on your license? I have 2 points 1 suspension and 2 moving violations on my license. Any feedback?

As long as u don't owe money that's all they worried about. 

[Mtahopeful121986]

Thanks for the info. So basically just dont owe anything but my driving record doesn’t have to be perfect

Pre-Employment Medical? Do you have Pre-employment or did you do pre. Employment already and now you have to do medical/final processing?

Not sure if you’re referring to my original question, but I’m going for pre employment on 11/16, I’ve yet to do a medical.

Wondering if anyone has the answer to this. I'm sure majority of people that take city exams take more than 1. What happens if u leave your city job while on probation for another city agency. U don't like the new title or something bad happens. Can u still go back to the previous title being that u left while still on probation?

No you can't go back.  You have to be in title in that position for a year and off probation for you to be able to come back to that position if it didn't work out in the new position.  So that lady you called at Livingston was correct.

I just got the email I have the medical this friday, being considered for the nov.26 class.  List #31x.

I just spoke to a gentleman who has 20+ years on the job who’s very cool with some supervisors. He informed me since I have a ticket that I’m fighting and don’t owe any money towards that I should be fine. As long as there’s no money owed that’s all they care about.

They will tell u to come back after the court date. At least that's what they told us when I was there in June. One guy was mad because he had to drive all the way to Connecticut to settle it sooner because he didn't want to defer it any longer.

Yes you are correct about this. I just called the hiring center and the guy informed me you should have nothing pending or owed.

I went in for pre-employment last friday Nov. 2.

[BrookylnBorn]

^Thanks, lets wait and see

 

Went to pre-employ on Monday, whoever said you dont have to arrive early is giving bad tips lol

 

was literally there for 12 hours, showed up at around 7:45 which I knew was a big mistake given the first couple times I went how long I’ve waited even arriving around 7am

 

Lab was put on hold for current employees, so the rest of us had to wait for them to finish

 

They told us we could go take a walk/get food and come back, felt like I did a work shift lol
