I have a feeling that's not a good idea as that's literally when the floodgates open and when THOUSANDS probably apply at the same time. I will try again. Wen was your session? May 26 , nothing so far sigh.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oscar101 Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 Looks like last week they were booking interviews for those who attended info sessions in May. Anybody from the June 21-22 sessions has an interview yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyman Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 1 hour ago, ttcrecr said: Will the TTC not be hiring any more operators because of the "non-essential hiring freeze" and cancellation of service improvements? Is the TTC still on track to replace retiring workers? Or is the hiring freeze for 2017? With all the unfilled crews this week at multiple divisions I would say the hiring would continue as well looks like the 60 hr max per week could be permanent.

I emailed them and I was told that it was received but it is sent out in batches through the mail. But if Canada Post goes on strike, it will obviously delay the training for many of us. Is there there any way that I can pick it up somewhere? Not sure if it's possible? Thanks Busgirl The police services will call you for pick up and location time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cronix_6649 Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 Hello, i have a couple questions regarding the transit operator position. Are you generally guaranteed to have atleast 2 days off in the week when starting off? Id imagine somewhere between mon-fri due to seniority.. Is overtime forced or voluntary? Also, im probably over thinking this one but how hard is it to learn each route in your division when starting off? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrsb2you Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Generally yes your looking at weekdays off, and yes 2 days.. They don't have to be consecutive tho depends on the crew, but mostly they are . Overtime is generally voluntary but can be forced depending on the situation and depending on which division some have more routes then others ... Mine has the most at 41 and if you like spareboard ( random daily gamble ) you can learn them pretty quick as everyday is different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cronix_6649 Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 Thank you, do they provide a map with turn by turn instructions ? When starting off new, is it better to be on spareboard in order to familiarize with all routes? If not on spareboard do you get just one route to focus on?

You get your divisions welcome guide with routes, emergency info, codes etc etc spareboard is back up per say when someone books off calls in etc so you can get some good work from the senior ops that took the day, when you pick a crew you do the same thing depending on the crew ( some are swing where it changes ) yes you do the same thing every weekday, your sat work is pre closen based on your crew choice and Sunday you select it's easy once you get used to it .. Focus on the shadowing if you have not done that and the rest will follow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
