Hey @Thinklikeamango I was just wondering , did the union get to negotiate whether or not you guys are getting night differential for the new contract ? By the way I passed the Terminal appearance test, doing background now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ride Posted August 22, 2022 Author Share #103 Posted August 22, 2022 If you pass background check with metro north, but they still choose to not interview you next, are they still going to send out a rejection letter to you or they won’t notify you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinklikeamango Posted March 29, 2023 Share #112 Posted March 29, 2023 Could be days, weeks, months, depends on the needs. I interviewed March and my medical wasn't till August. This was back in 2019 when I got hired so I don't know if they sped the process up or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's usually a 3 to 2 person panel interview, they'll ask you questions sometimes scenario based. Just give them your best answer you'll be fine.

For grand central alone we have about 6 open spots. Even if it gets filled people always move on and get different jobs so there's always openings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting pay is now 24.13 for regular terminal appearance and 25.35 for operator. So top pay is 34.46 and 36.22. They took 3 jobs off the weekly bulletin could be one of the jobs they hired you on One was overnight, the other an extra job which means you could work split shifts ( 1 day in the am, 2 days in the afternoon, and 2 days at night ect...) And the other job I couldn't find maybe a 3-11? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
