Ttcbound Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 Anybody know if the pass rate for training is realtively high? It would be a nightmare to leave a decent full time job just to fail at the training stage. Are you able to re-take the training if you fail the road test?

Dont let the passing rate deceive you. My class has a 100% percent passing rate. A class has 0% passing rate. I had said it before and i am going to say it again. Try to request a leave of absense from your current job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 3, 2018 Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 So I just got the email from HR that they won't be proceeding with my candidacy as an operator. Would it be inappropriate for me to ask why not? I thought I aced the interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiggum93 Posted May 3, 2018 Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 I just got my conditional offer for Overhead Linesperson's Assistant and have my medical coming up. Anyone know the medical requirements for this position? Specifically the eyesight requirement? Do they fall under commercial drivers? I don't have glasses and my vision is good enough to drive without glasses in my personal vehicle as per MTO standards but would not qualify for commercial driver unless i get glasses.

If that position requires a D license, you have to go through an eye exam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max3031 Posted May 3, 2018 Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 Onto Day 3 of training and I'm loving it. It's true what some of you had said, it depends on the person and on their experience of the training that determines if it's "hard" or "easy". I have been putting myself in a hard-working mentality. Basically, what you put into training is what you'll get out of it. And the instructors are awesome! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree. There is no reason not to ask for feedback. If it's provided, you can learn something and do better next time. If you think you aced it and you failed, there's a disconnect that needs to be resolved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know how many months from the conditional offer and completing all the steps to actually start training? Right now they seem to be moving much faster since union put a hold on OT. From the date of your medical (if all goes well) until documentation is somewhere between 5-8 weeks, and training start date usually 3-5 weeks later. (Some people whi didn’t require to give 2 weeks notice were called in much sooner, as early as 2 days after documentation. I know some guys who are still waiting much past those timelines, so nothing is certain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
