saldanamoreno Posted September 4, 2016 Share #1 Posted September 4, 2016 Hello, I am new to this forum. I understand that the Train Operator Exam is open on December 9th and is open competitive, is that correct? I want to apply once it comes out, I have a Bachelor's degree and over 10 years full time job experience in the medical field and looking to change careers. I am also a Veteran of the USAF. Any information on what my next step should be would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was you, right now, just sit back and be patient. Once the notice of examination (NOE) comes out, then all of us will have a better idea of what to expect.

Your next step is to wait for the beginning of the filing period (hopefully they don't postpone it again) and to file for the exam which can be done through the links on the MTA page under employment which will start you in the right place. If you're looking further ahead (beyond filing) then this should help: http://www.nyctransitforums.com/forums/topic/49538-rto-new-hire-faq/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saldanamoreno Posted December 11, 2016 Author Share #7 Posted December 11, 2016 So It's December 11th and the train operator position is available to apply for. I have submitted the application online and paid the application fee. I realize that as a Disabled Veteran I could have went through the process of filling out a paper form and waiving the fee but I chose to do it online, mainly to just fill it out and get that part out of the way. I realized that "Disabled Veterans' Credit will be granted only to eligible passing candidates who request that they be applied.....but must be requested before the date the eligible list is established." I clicked on Disabled Veteran in my online application, is this acceptable as a form of requesting this credi? If not how do I do this and when should I do this? Thank you in advance.
