Since my medical was on the 23rd. 2 hours ago, Magnum said: I'm starting to assume so but it's still not definite. It's seems like the training sessions are every two weeks, leading me to think there might be another one shortly after thanksgiving, on the 26th. Let us know if you folks who did medical on 10/23, 10/24 receive any correspondence. I got a phone number for someone in the hiring department. She told me that all vacancies are full for 11/12 just like Racneb mentioned. So yup, I’m thinking all of us who had medicals on 10/23-10/25 are going to be for 11/26. Fingers crossed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It went like I expected, they said the same thing and there is nothing to be done about it and they also said that human resources does what they are told to do - MTA said no more people for now - no matter my personal circumstances. I'm coming to terms with it and look forward to the future. Hopefuly it doesn't take a year to hear back from them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we end up in that training class, I wonder if it'll mean we'll require an additional Lab as they're only good for 30 days. 🥃 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can confirm that today it seemed like no one was doing final processing before training class. All the people that where there where doing the paperwork that I did on my first appointment before the urine sample. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mention before, since we are not sure when we'll be called especially you since you're ahead of us, then take weekend classes in the mean time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked the lady that exact question and all she said was "everything; class and hiring". She was definitely a bit pissed about me being there going by the way she looked at me. It's possible she just wanted to get rid of me with that answer... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The least she could have been respectful enough because not only did you paid you were looking expecting that they had vacancies that is the reason we all applied. Anyway, whenever they call me I get call. I will not stress and fight myself up about when they will call me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are they going through the pre-employment process/paperwork if there is a HR freeze on hiring? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I work out of Spring Creek depot. There was a group there in a training bus outside. Superintendents bring groups there to practice certain things, because it’s a quiet area, not a lot of traffic. They are the 10/29 class. Remember 11/12 class is 2 weeks behind, I’m in that class. If you took the medical, already and they had you take another drug test, you are good. They will be calling you soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully since they have time will be calling according to your listed number for medical if you already completed the pre-employment part and passed the first drug test. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt they would have people take the medical, they pass, then don’t call them. While at the same time, continue to call people for pre-employment. They need bus operators, remeber the “L” train line is shutting down for repairs, on the 27th of April. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes for those who probably are ahead of some like myself who did my pre-employment close to a month now and haven't gotten called back yet to do medical. So, most of you that did your pre-employments are most likely the ones that got called back to do your medical and they paused for now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
