2ride Posted February 3, 2022 Share #2 Posted February 3, 2022 I’m still waiting for their response on the assistant conductor and ticket seller positions. May I forbid, but I’m afraid this is going to take a LONG time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardWorkin Posted February 7, 2022 Author Share #3 Posted February 7, 2022 Did you apply for the ticket seller or you already took the exam? I recently applied for ticket seller , background check is complete as far as I’m concerned, it took a while for me to provide some of the documents, their background check is no joke , I needed a lot of job verification documents , which I had to wait for an appointment at the SSA office , hope that doesn’t effect the process. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They already sent you an email for background check for ticket seller? I didn’t get anything yet and haven’t taken the exam either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t get called for that unfortunately . Was the exam difficult ?! I also applied for Ticket seller for metro-north hopefully I hear back from them . I really wanted more of a customer service position, but if I have to start at coach cleaner to get in, I will. Good luck on the interview, report back to let us know how it goes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I get called for Assistant Conductor first, I’m going to take the exam for that one instead. I see that as a better position than the ticket booth agent. Both positions are for MNR.

Has your application for either the ticket seller or assistant conductor position updated the screening results yet? I haven’t gotten any pre screening updates yet either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope , both applications just say “ applied” , but my coach cleaner application also said applied, and they invited me for the exam; so idk how reliable looking at screening results are. Also, I have a ton of applications that say passed pre screening and I’ve never heard back from them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I wonder how hard is it to really get a job at MTA because it seems like they hire people who wear ghettoish and don’t seem ready for the real world, I mean not coming in with proper business attire especially during orientation and exams. Anyways, I did the best I could with both applications and I’m still having a breakdown of possibly not getting selected at all.

Yea, I just looked smh ,mines changed also to “Customer Service Stat Ambassador” , and it’s based in Westchester, which is kinda far for me anyway.. either way I’m going to wait and see what happens . This is the second job I applied for and realized the position title changed from what it was previously.

I think this all the time on my daily commute , the people I see working for the MTA , like what am I doing wrong . I know how you feel though, I’m desperately in need for a career change and was hoping to get in the MTA , I never imagined it would be this hard..Don’t get discourage we’re in this together, just keep applying. We will eventually hear back from something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could happen if u got the job anyway, your job isn't permanent if you were hired as a ticket seller and then got bumped and there aren't any ticket seller positions you take what's available just letting you know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, can you compare the assistant conductor job to customer ambassador? Which one is better? Edited February 17, 2022 by 2ride 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thinklikeamango Posted February 18, 2022 Share #22 Posted February 18, 2022 Both are good jobs, training for a conductor is very long and lots of tests to go with it. You can't go wrong with either job 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
