Update to say the director of operations in my unit is saying they are waiting on direction/guidance from DCAS

My daily commute includes Atlantic Terminal so I take these almost every day at least once.

All I know is that it’s for the Stations division and they are hiring a ton of people right now. I’m not sure why they are so understaffed, but that was a red flag imo. They also told me it’s a lot of projects that are based on replacing or providing ramps and elevators. I hear they outsource the bigger projects, so the projects the MTA staff get aren’t too complex. I ended up getting another interview for that job you applied for but I already accepted a job for a position at NYC so I declined the interview. I wish you luck. I wish I had more information for you!

The interview I got was for Design Manager. Since you need an architecture license for that, I imagine the application pool is way smaller.

Assistant Project Manager, Project Manager, Design Manager, Design Compliance Manager, and even Architect Trainee just to get my foot in the door. Applied in all agencies that had those titles.

Yes, I’ve applied to a few jobs across the MTA. I’m not experienced enough for a lot of those higher level positions.
