prefire19 Posted July 25 Share #106 Posted July 25 Hey everyone, finally got my results and just got 2 wrong so I should be pretty high up on the list. Question for those familiar with the hiring process. I remember reading something about how they tend to DQ people who have a larger neck size due to sleep apnea. I'm a big guy (6'3-6'4" and between 350-400) and know my neck size will be an issue. and I have sleep apnea as well. However I do recall reading about how there is a way around this to be hired if you have a doctors note showing that you can be cleared for hiring. Can anyone shed some light on this? Thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a note from your doctor and make sure you have documentation of how long you use the machine each night. It has to be a print out dont even bother showing them anything on your Phone. Or saying "Here's a Link to see it"... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vance Posted August 14 Share #109 Posted August 14 I just received an email from transit and they want me to complete another Education and Experience form. I already completed and submitted that same form back in May before we even got to the written exam. For some reason, I am unable to download it either on my cell phone or laptop. Please let me know if anyone else got this form and is having trouble downloading it. They want it completed by Aug. 19th. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Posted August 15 Share #113 Posted August 15 (edited) no problem opening it, filling it out again. I guess they really don't want unqualified people to get list numbers (edit: i would like to note they aren't doing this for the conductor exam, I'm not sure how of note that is) Edited August 15 by Steve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything must be completed by Aug 19. I’ve already did this prior to taking the test so idk the reasoning for doing it again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prefire19 Posted August 15 Share #115 Posted August 15 (edited) So apparently not everyone got the email yesterday. It seems like only those who scored the highest did. I know 9 people who took the test, and only those who got 3 wrong or less got the email. The other 6 didn’t get the email and they got 4 wrong or more on the test.

BayArea Posted August 15 Share #116 Posted August 15 Can’t be true, I got 5 wrong and still got the email. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vance Posted August 15 Share #117 Posted August 15 You are correct. I also got the email and I got 6 wrong. However, I was unable to open the form from my email. I called them and they said they would get back to me. The woman I spoke to told me that they are inundated with work right now. She said they are in the process of hiring 2,000 bus drivers. Does anyone know if this is the same form they sent us in May? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2ride Posted August 19 Share #121 Posted August 19 (edited) I need to appeal a DQ letter I received from NYCT regarding a position I took an exam for and applied. Does anyone have quick help/advice they can give me please? They said I didn’t meet minimum work experience requirement, but I did and went over the minimum work experience that they were looking for. I even marked it down on the EE form so I don’t know how they couldn’t have catched it. Any insights is helpful and appreciated! I have 30 days to file an appeal with the NYC commissioner.

Just a hunch, I think they also look for a certain kind of employment first too even tho it doesn’t say it in the notice maybe I’m wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The position that I applied for in related to the DQ letter was station agent. I marked down about 2 years of customer service experience with UPS and about a year of experience working at an Amtrak/NJ Transit train yard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and they don’t do background checks until your list number is called. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
