I applied to a recent LIRR Assitant Signalman job post back in May. I checked online after a couple weeks and my "disposition status" went from Applied to just a blank. Anyone know if this signifies anything? Originally I thought I was just dismissed for the position but I've been told this doesn't mean a whole lot either way.
Also, can anyone tell me what I should expect if fortune should smile upon me and I do get called? I know there's a whole lot of terms and signals to memorize verbatim but I don't know the physical tests/expectations or how much electrical they want you to know going in. I have a strong background with electrical from my current job working with automotive electrical diagnostics (using scopes, meters, and Scan tools) plus I've spent some time as a handy man so I've worked with household AC just not as much as low and high voltage DC. Any thoughts would be appreciated

Just as an update, it moved about a week ago from blank to "Passed Prescreening". So we'll see.
