Staten island interview and Metro north were both panel interviews. I thought the staten island one went great but I was wrong. The metro north one wasnt bad but it was before a big snow storm and was kinda rushed. I feel like I could of answered the questions better. 

 

Thats awesome man, good luck! What position is your physical ability test for?

Well I just got an email from staten island railway and it looks like I didnt get the job. Very depressing. Hopefully I'll hear back from Metro North for the custodial position one of these days. 

 

in the meantime I guess I'll keep applying 😩

Sorry to hear that frank... It seems like what everyone is saying is true though. No news is good news. You got a denial right away and haven't had one for the custodian position.

How was your PAT? I am given 40 mins for my PAT, did you feel like you had to rush thru? Or was it at a nice calm speed? 

 

Lastly, was every task demonstrated to you first or was it just asked that you perform it? I know you did track worker, mine is for third railman MNRR

 

im slated to do mine next Thursday.

Had 15, took me about 11. They definitely let you take your time, there was a video before we performed it. It was hot at track 100 of GCT. Make sure you hydrate, i was dripping.

No problem, if your medical is the same day as was mine expect to be there for 4-5 hours. 

Geez sounds intense.

i have 40 mins to complete my PAT, then my medical is immediately after the PAT.

 

What do the do for the Med that takes so long?

Have you received a second sterling background check email yet?

The second background check was just a criminal questionnaire sheet that I had to fax within 48 hours along with my conditional offer.
