What signals i need to study for Louisville KY
Can Indian person apply for this job? Living in Mumbai
Does anyone know when the next training start date is?
You got an email 📧 where I can write you an email about some questions
Thank you. And is there any way i could study before they give me my start date by any chance?
NS isn’t streamlined at all man been waiting for a start date since January
Me too
i heard they were on a hiring freeze? do you have any information on when they’re gonna have more classes scheduled? also, how long did it take for you to get your start date?
Is fort wayne terminal big or small
Thank you for that..
Hey bro. Whenever you do a Video on the CSX Application process, could you explain in the Freight Conductor Position where it speaks on how You must live within 75 miles of job location, could they hire those who meet that requirement? I'm Timmy by the way!
Waiting 2 months for start date, lol that’s cute us guys in bluefield WV have been “awaiting start date” since December
I’m gonna be working out a Bluefield too
Since December is crazy. Hopefully you get a date soon.
Are you still working for the Railroad?
Nope, left and not going back
@@smith2488 oh ok I’m excited to go to the Railroad
@@smith2488why?
What do you know about muscle shoals AL yard
I know it’s a big yard and very busy.
Are you keeping the books?
Do you know the signal test for Ft Wayne IN
How many questions are on the signals test?
April 22 2024 Been waiting for start date 2 months
Hey Chris, can you please speak on the situation with the railroads currently are they cutting jobs etc. I saw the CEO of NS talking about cutting cost we all know that cutting jobs
I should’ve seen your channel before going to NS training.You mentioned in one of your videos that NS training isn’t for beginners.I wasn’t prepared for the pace of in class training.You live and learn
How to time a small block chevy
And how often do you get recertified as a conductor? Ex: two years or so
Is all the tests multiple choice?
Hiii... from Canada! I'm waiting for the offer and start date at CN. It's been a week and a half since I got an email saying that I've been successful in my interview, background check and medicals and currently do not have a start date but will email me with the start date as soon as they get confirmation from the training centre. I am not sure if you are familiar with Canadian railroads but when can I anticipate receiving the email? any idea would be helpful. thanks again and I like your videos.
If you can get a start date those are hard to come by these days
Thank you brother.I went to NS for training and their program was too fast for my liking.Im a beginner and I felt an uneasiness and somewhat uncomfortable with that kind of pace.As far as memorizing and regurgitating that info on the final,I could’ve done that.I really wanted to learn and know everything I was going to put myself into.Then you’d hear things about when you get to your on the job training terminal the people there would not respect what they had learned or the candidate had learned at the training center.As if you were supposed to throw all that out.I thought we were all supposed to be on the same page?Im not knocking those that got to their terminal and are working I tip my hat to ya.
So we will gather paid while in Georgia. After 2weeks ?
Your first check will be the third week you are there. That 3rd Friday. You will get 140$ per week on wed for food
2 questions.. 1 do you know the signals for Bellevue,Ohio ? 2 when you get started with training how do you take the practice tests
The signals for Ohio are conrail and for the practice tests they will be done through questionmark at the facility and you can practice in your room if you bring a computer.
2 beds.... Smith, are these rooms shared between students?
No. The room is yours alone. No one else is in the room.
@@smith2488 Excellent! That is better for studying, and would make me feel more at ease. I just wasn't sure because I have heard several trainees mention they were "doubled up." Thanks Eric!
What is an ideal salary I can expect being hired as a new conductor? I’ve already taken my drug screen and exam in Birmingham.
According to the papers I got before was 60-90 thousand but I’d imagine it depends on location and time you are working.
I can’t wait to start my aquarium lol
What signals do you study for Williamson WV
You would study I believe n and w, also be aware that is considered a small terminal from what I remember, you probably won’t be there often. I have a friend I went through class with that ended up there or so he thought sadly lol
@@smith2488 Thanks man, appreciate it! I keep that in mind! I've been waiting on a start date for a month now an chance you happen to know an average time span of when I'll get a date?
Are you actually paid weekly in GA or is there a wait period with pay?
Paid every Wednesday for meal and your first check will be the day you leave ga, 3rd week
Did they place you on a fastrack since you previously been thru the program
No. I had to do the entire process all over.
What signals do you study for moberly missouri
Sounds like you’d be on n and w signals.
Can you show what signals to study for moberly missouri
Study n and w signals
@@smith2488 thanks
How do you know it’s a small or big terminal?
If the terminal have 15 tracks or less it’s a small terminal. Rough estimate. Basically outside any major city is a small terminal.
So Elkhart indiana is asmall terminal?
I appreciate it 😁
I’m in “Awaiting start date” status currently. How long from awaiting start date to getting the email for your official date did you wait?
I had my awaiting status from Oct 24,2023 till like a week ago … so it took me like 5 months but that’s my experience if that helps
Can you have a felon if its more than 5 years old?
I’ve seen when I was there people that had a felony, I guess it’s case by case basis.
Hey so where will drug testing actually take place and will it be before I travel to the training facility? I am applying for Roanoke
Well, just had my "interview ". They are no longer interviewing anyone who lives more than 90 minutes from the yard where they applied.
Do you know anything about Csx? I just put in a application for there freight conductor position, like there hiring process all that good stuff?
Waiting on mines
Do they check your hotel room?
Yes they will check the rooms and hotel staff are instructed to report you if you’re breaking rules.
Do they do random room checks?
Hey man I dig your videos they have been really helpful to me as I really want to become a conductor>engineer. I have a lot of questions too 😅
Ask away my man.
I just got my start date Thursday the 28th of March… After waiting 10 months
Typical
Thanks for answering. If I get hired, I'll be coming from AZ. I put in for several locations but I'm kinda hoping for Indiana.
Be careful with ns. They like to act as if you will be at hire location but generally you are not.
I’ve been waiting for a start date since January for Charlotte doesn’t look like I’ll ever start at this current rate. I’m looking at getting on with a short line instead.
@smith2488 It doesn't matter where they put me, anywhere on the NS will be a long way from home for me. 😆
@@collegefootballfan7909 lot of guys in the recent months have got through the training facility and ojt at charlotte, they're probably full at the moment. had at least 8 guys in my class going there, and they all passed
Thanks for the info on Charlotte.
Yw:)
@@smith2488 any info about Charlotte regarding jobs. It looks like a big yard. I am assuming a lot of yard jobs, locals?
How do I get a hold of NS I completed my drug test on 2/22/24 and I haven’t heard back from them. I just seen on my NS profile and it says awaiting start date 2/28/24. Thanks for your time
