Hello everyone. I was fortunate enough to have been invited to take the Conductor exam for MNR. I 100% know I nailed everything I needed to study for as far as terms and indications, however, I wasn’t able to finish the math portion in time. Will this disqualify me from consideration? Like I said, everything else I know I did really well on. Thanks for the input.

Got a letter in the mail that I passed the TO exam I took last June, according to the letter, I will be on the eligible list and it will be posted in June or July
So a whole year, wow. Awesome anyway, good luck.

So i applied and went through the entire hiring process for the Tinsmith/Structures.I completed everything that was asked and filled out everything they needed.Interview,physical & drug test all done.Im basically at the waiting stage.Anyone know how long it takes after you have completed everything? I was told by a few current employees if you make it that far you are basically hired.Its been about 2 weeks since i last heard from the recruiter.Do i just wait this out or give it another week or 2 and then call my recruiter and see whats up? I was also told the recruiter will play dumb and say they will contact you soon.

Is pre-hire sleep apnea screening a disqualifier (or is it something that if you get treated for after the screening you can still be hired)? Is it for all T&E positions or just engineer?

Can anyone answer my question. I’m in the process for a signal trainee position with MNR. I passed the med/physical test a couple weeks ago. I was told that the class will start in August. Is there any timeline as to when I should hear a response and a final offer? Should I reach out to my recruiter and ask for any updates or just wait it out? I just hate waiting and 2 months away is a long time to wait.

Thanks
