Uh buddy you need more of a 1:8 ratio if you think you have a chance. They went through 5880 list numbers in 7 years. They aren't going to go through 3100+ in one year. There's being realistic and then there's being blissfully ignorant. Good luck though.

you're right about the 1 in 6 (approx) if they hire 500 , unfortunately it's very unlikely but you never know with the city. i hope you took the new test. good luck

Y'all got it bad! Lol. In the TA around every 6 months you get to "pick" Which route and tour you want based off of your seniority, or you can go XX for the $$.

That's why (yeah it's an awesome job) I wouldn't want to rush to get into DSNY. I'd use this down time waiting for my list # as a "vacation", because once you're in it's time to nut up or shutup.

You guys have an 18 month probation too?

It's not too bad you get used to it, I will say the one thing I don't like is how the scheduling works, but with some seniority it starts to level off. And yeah 18mo probation. Even with the schedule I still think this is the best job I've ever had, I love it here, and I think it's one of the best if not the best city job you could get
