I feel your pain @Oxl6665 I been off the list since June according to them, which make no sense cause I was on hold went back to do my first drug test July 02. But I just got the confirmation letter confirming my name back on the list now all I can do is just wait. I hate answering numbers I don’t know...LoL, I save the number they called me on the first time, I hope that’s the number they will used when calling again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre Klass Posted March 10, 2020 Share #712 Posted March 10, 2020 The electrical helper test is coming back this Summer of 2020. Anybody have any advise on what to study and focus on?

When I took it back in 2018 it was about 40 questions and primarily common sense but it did have some questions related to Ohm's Law. Definitely had some DC equations .. V=I×R.

I had a good score so I had the opportunity to select either Power Dept. or Signal Dept. I would recommend Power Dept. Over Signal Dept.. Some Senior Maintainer's at Signal Dept. Are bunch of A whole's so they will take advantage of Helper's and treat Helper's like slaves. Have a buddy in Power Dept. and it's day & night experience for me and him. Had a family friend who was in Lighting Dept. But for some reason I haven't heard Lighting Dept. Looking for Helper's. Electronic Equipment Dept. Is another good place if you want use the skills they ask for .. but same as Lightning Dept. For some reason they aren't looking for Helper's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Driver License Requirement: At the time of appointment, you must have a Motor Vehicle Driver License valid in the state of New York with no disqualifying restrictions that would preclude the performance of the duties of either title. If you have serious moving violations, license suspension or an accident record you may be disqualified.

nipaaaa Posted March 23, 2020 Share #720 Posted March 23, 2020 well i'm just telling you from experience that I've seen mad people with f**ked up driving records that were still hired. You'd probably had to have killed someone in an accident for them to disqualify you 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dordonez18 Posted March 26, 2020 Share #721 Posted March 26, 2020 I really hope that’s the case with me Too and I end up getting hired I mean it is only a single speeding ticket on my record nothing else and I took a defensive drivers course as well. What’s the worst Driving record you’ve seen and still hired if you don’t mind me asking. Thank you👍🏻 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you 🙏🏻 I really hope so too that’s the goal. I called Livingston 2 weeks ago and the automated voice tells me they’re going to open again March 30 so I’m going to give it another shot calling Monday to see if they maybe got a spot for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
