andyman Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 It's nearly impossible to finish all the questions. If your stuck on one leave it and comeback to it but most likely you won't have time. Just do your best. It might help if you sneak a peak at the test before you start and keep answering questions after they tell you to stop. Sorry disregard that......

You're right though, it's quite hard to answer all 50 questions correctly within 12 minutes. I did about 30, favouring quality over quantity and I passed. They don't expect you to finish everything.

LMESSIAH Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 Most people won't finish it but the test has been beaten before... I did 44 of them got no more than a couple wrong.... But the info that if you do too many you fail can be filed in the trash. If you get too many wrong then sure. Right answers over gueses, make sure that's all or at least the majority of your answers and you'll pass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan I Am Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 A good friend dearly wants to be a TTC Operator. He attended the information session, did the job shadowing assignments, but unfortunately, showed up to the interview with a photocopy of his Ontario High School Diploma instead of the original as required. The interview was cancelled and he was devastated. My question: are interviews ever rescheduled in these circumstances? He has been trying to call and email but has received no response. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leylandvictory2 Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 given the sheer amount of applicants, they don't have time to go back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems like such a shame. Is there anybody he can contact to at least request that he get rescheduled at the end of the regularly scheduled applicants? Does he really have to wait until the job is posted again (or re-apply now) and start the process over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's excellent I really have my fingers crossed for streetcar at Russell but I understand the chances are probably slim since most postings are to bus.

The whole process is jumping through hoops doing exactly what they tell you. You don't do something as requested, see Ya later! They have 10,000 people behind him that can and will follow their instructions to a tee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyman Posted April 12, 2016 Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 Very true. An HR rep told me recently it's impossible to look at every resume they receive so just to get the call to the info session and interview are an accomplishment. Usually during the info session one person is removed for not following instructions properly also. I'm told that is a planted TTC employee to set the example that if you don't or can't follow simple instructions your out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
