Anybody have any tips when going in for your medical? The tip about bringing water and snacks when going in for the pre-employment definitely came in handy for me.

Could be quick or it could be an all day affair. Read your email packet. they tell you to do this questionnaire thing its basically 3 parts. doing it before you go in may speed it up a bit

Medical is almost an all day affair.

 

You go to station 3 hand in paperwork

Then you fill out more paperwork

Then you go over to medical on the other side of the room, once your called you do a 3 part questionnaire which has a ton of questions 

Then you get called to medical by the nurse she does the eyes, hearing, EKG and whatnot typical stuff checking BP 

The doctor then calls you in after you go back to that room and they do various things to see if you have any pain and make your file then they tell you if you passed or failed.

After that you go back to station 3 and hand the paper and wait for final processing which takes a while as well. 

 

If i missed anything someone correct me lol

Thank you. The questionnaire you mentioned were all health related questions? Do they ask about past convictions as well? Will that be a problem if so?

Just got back from medical. I literally spent 9 hours and 30mins in that building; and I thought pre-employment wait time was bad.
