Keep us posted if anything moves forward...

had no idea they would do canvass email for twice...

Most definately will do. 

Did anyone else receive another canvass letter notice? I'm just excited now to see how long it takes to be called. I havent done the medical or anything else. 

Probably around 2-3 weeks I assume?

That's good to know. Thanks for the update. I got my 2nd canvass letter on 8/17, and I submitted the same day. I think you will be getting your canvass letter soon too.

The only thing i received is the canvassing email on august 17th but i was never called to do the spa test. Is this normal?

I am same as you, and I just finished the final process this week, I did everything included medical test, photo ID, fingerprint. and , Im doing to the orientation by next week. Then, I received an email asking me to take the SPA after two weeks. I had been hired, should I still go to take the SPA? weired.

Does anybody know whats on the spa test and if there is any way to study for it? I just got called to take it in 2 weeks.

SPA test is a safety assesment. When I did it years ago, they showed me pictures of certain situations and asked me what was unsafe in the pictures and what potential hazards are. Its easy, don't sweat it. I'm at my yard right now and there's a bunch of new helpers in the classroom downstairs...not sure where they're going but they are in the Power dept.

Just took the SPA test and i feel like i did terrible because i was nervous and kept freezing up during my responses. Some of the questions were vague and it confused me and one of the questions didnt even have anything to do with the actual picture. Does anyone know what happens if I fail the spa test? I already did a drug test for pre employment.

Not sure if you could fail it. If you had a basic sense of the safety issues in the pictures then you should be good. When you get hired, trust me, safety is going to be beat into you. A ton of classes you will be put into. The initial track flagging class is 2 weeks long for example.

I think you should’ve been called then, because they called people that are in the 100s
