Some of us are coming close to 2 years since the info session where we all accelerated through that side of the process. 2 years is crazy! I really hope everyone waiting starts soon.

Uniform supplier is very slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TransitMotorcoach Posted October 2, 2021 Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 I applied for the Transit Operator position yesterday. Hoping it is successful. It also has me wondering if my current 2 years of experience at York Region (Southeast Division - Miller Transit) will result in a smoother hiring process too, especially since I am very familiar with driving both the Nova and New Flyer buses, in addition to actually being fully adapted to the lifestyle of this career.

I’d assume it helps. How is York Region? Adaption to this lifestyle is definitely a big thing for me being a noob. Coming from a normal 9-5 job to training 645am-2pm 5 days a week to working splits and late nights and night shifts is very tough. My first month driving on my own with the inconsistent schedule on spareboard was super tough but once you get the hang of it, it’s actually pretty nice. Good luck! Lots of info on this thread for your application process here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of info on this thread for your application process here. At York Region, there is no true long term stability, since the operations contract with Miller will expire in 2023, and if it is not renewed, either I start over with a new contractor, or I am out of work. It was a good way to get the actual transit experience, when getting into the TTC and other transit agencies is very difficult as someone very green, but looking long term, the future is unknown there. The fact that York residents mostly prefer to drive, and the ridership on a lot of local feeder routes is very low, it does not help either. The region itself will not hesitate to scrap a route that doesn't financially perform to their expectations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion VI Posted December 21, 2021 Report Share Posted December 21, 2021 Not sure if this is exactly on topic, but is anybody aware of when the TTC posts applications for their summer student program? The current website (https://www.ttc.ca/jobs/Summer-Student-Program) is still listing summer 2021 being full, meaning it's not updated. I'm assuming the program is still happening?
