Is there a list of jobs within DSNY so I can furthur educate myself?

Also, I am positive I scored a 105 on this exam, I really want to be apart of DSNY however a gut feeling tells me scoring a 105 still wont solidify a hire.

You'll start with some form of truck work whether you're doing collection or picking up baskets or litter. Driving snow equipment in winter, handbroom, backpack blower etc. More time you have, more options you have.

Further educate? Nah nothing there really. You can take tests when available for the next two positions. After that it's who you blow....I mean know

There were no hirings for almost 2 1/2 years off our exam. That isn't going to happen with yours. It all works out in the end. Whats amazing is the people who have had 8 years to get prepared & are STILL not ready should they be called. Boggles the mind
