You're really in there after you get thru that interview assuming you pass the physical test which is cake. I gave you most of what will be on that interview. Zoom interview is huge. takes some of the nerves off. Goodluck though man you got it. Know alittle about metro north and try to remember some instances of what you did at your old job or hell make them up if you have to 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also becoming conductor is mandatory promotion at 12 months. You gotta pass the test to become a conductor How does this work? I know 6 years is top rate but at 12 months you become a conductor, so shouldnt your pay change? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look at like the corner of your screen or something i was looking at my recycle bin app lol. Practice in the mirror rehearse. Being prepared to answer the questions really helped me too 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly just pit conductor interview questions into YouTube and watched like 5 of them. Gave me some strong answers for some questions. I saw about 5 of them but each was like 20 minutes a little long but helped for sure 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2ride Posted July 10, 2023 Share #43 Posted July 10, 2023 Guys, I already took the exam last year, but didn’t get an offer on first interview, then I can reapply again this year right? It’s a 1 year wait if you don’t pass interview first time? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when the application goes live thousands of people apply. You really gotta be on it. 4 classes per year with 14 students. Thats not alot of people per year so deff gotta be on it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
