Hello
,
I am new to this forum and I have few questions about the exam 7603, Electronic Equipment Maintainer and the Provisional Status.
I have been looking for answer everywhere and surprisingly I can’t find anything about the Electronic Position maintainer.
Last year I decided to apply for the exam 7603, Electronic Equipment Maintainer.
March 2017 I have been appointed to a multiple choice test that I passed.
August 2017 I took the practical exam. I am confident that I did well. When I left they told me the result would come between 9 to 12 months.
Last month I received a thick letter from the MTA saying that I have to be at 180 Livingston Street office because I am considered for a Provisional position as Electronic Equipment maintainer.
Because I really want to be working for the MTA and that this position is well paid I decided to show up.
Long story short, I passed the drug test and now I have been called to Livingston this Tuesday 09/04/18.
If I understand if everything goes well, they do my fingerprints check the 21 pages booklet then I will be sworn to the position.
The dilemma is that I just started a new job that I kind of like, I just completed my first week of training and already thinking of resigning.
I would definitely leave the job for the Electronic Equipment maintainer. The only down side is the Provisional status; they say there is a 1 year probation, is it safe to proceed?
Thanks for your help!
