Has anyone who applied for Engineer trainee been contacted yet? I have 12 applications in, the oldest is from October 7th and they all still say under review. All i see is reports of possible scaling back due to manpower shortages. I am a current Class 1 Engineer and am vaccinated. In the past before i got on with BNSF they were pretty quick to deny my applications as they usually want people with experience of which i now have.
Human Resources at Amtrak appears to be a total mess at the moment. (see the attached report if you want the details)
Hang in there, they're sure to get back to you your experience.
