They will not tell you if you're going to be hired the first day you attend the pre-employment. They call you once they have a date set for the medical after your pre-employment.

Ok but the medical is being done the same day as the pre-employment interview. The letter states they are both being done on the same day.

WOW, does this mean that they are already up to at least #782 on the list? That seems too good to be true!

No, that person is talking about being #782 on the conductor exam 8094.

I can tell you for a fact that MTA will not hold any criminal past against you--provided that you list it on the forms you'll have to fill out. When I got hired, there were two people who had records. One listed them as instructed, and the other didn't think they were important enough, so he left them off.

The first guy was hired and still works here. The second guy was let go as soon as MTA found out about his omission. (We get fingerprinted, and the prints are sent to the FBI).

But as long as you tell the truth...no, it won't affect your employment.

Just got back from the pre interview. The only thing you will do is **** in a cup. after the paperwork is given in and u pee u go home. I suggest getting there earlllllly. I got there at 615 am for a 730 appointment. was done by 9 20 am. When I go in for the medical I plan on being there at the same time or earlier. I want to get in and get out.

Your processing and class dates are totally different then this forums topic. We are processing to be Train Operators/Motorman, not conductors as you are. So the info you relay has nothing to do with exam 8098.
