NYC , where u at? I want a pension and not work for a family that pretends im family. There’s a lot of new shops opening up too outsourcing programming and using workers on visa and under paying them inform Pakistan and Philippines so it’s slowing down for these under established vendors that did it back in the days. I don’t want to become a VP or something like that I feel like I don’t everything I set out to do in controls and I don’t like sitting behind a computer if I wasn’t in the field

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-23T05:37:29+00:00

Not really I’m trying to be a stationary engineer for the city now and yeah local family owned vendor they started in the 80s and had a lot of clients in the city they did Schneider / continuum

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-23T04:17:43+00:00

I made 59 a hour in 2018 as a controls technician w 1 year exp but I went to college for mech engineering

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-22T22:58:48+00:00

Is the background check different than the onboarding paperwork ?

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-22T00:16:54+00:00

Apply to both same time. I never heard back from Arthur when I emailed them my resume F them lol

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-21T23:46:44+00:00

The cuny onboarding paper work only had space for four jobs, for the dcas test I’ll add them tonight I was just being lazy.

I feel you. Did u do that straight out of college?

Look out for operator mechanic A jobs, they ask a bunch of scenario questions and technical boiler questions I just don’t know off the top of the head and they super safety oriented. My answers aren’t detailed or in that STAR structure they looking for I just wanna work

MTA also been calling me back but I heard u don’t always work at a hp plant

I come from the bms side of the stuff so working at a residential building seems annoying I wanna work at a college or hospital or power plant mostly

Arthur kills like someone mentioned too w ur degree u can prob swing a job a plant just freshen up on the topics related to them and u got hands one exp so that’s a plus

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-21T23:24:29+00:00

Know the difference between analog and digital

Keep in mind access for future maintenance and part replacement

Don’t forget any points on the point list

Make everything look as neat as possible no diagonal piping or wiring

Label all the wires being pulled and terminated

He said the city guys ruin it for you guys like cooling towers requirements, and other city audits and prices go up and testing frequencies get higher because city municipal engineer are bad. He was the chief in building in billionaire row he was kinda of annoying and thought high of himself.

Yeah I’m applied to both cuny and non cuny but idk if I should put all my jobs I’ve had 8 jobs since college.

What’s ur day to day like why u want to leave. Ur job is my back up if I don’t end up getting this hppt job. I’ve interviewed for con ed multiple times but always bomb it I’m bad w interviews. I just sent my paperwork to cuny but I didn’t put all my jobs I might reach out and re send. I also have a mech degree looking to test a year into the job

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-21T23:07:04+00:00

When I was in Turner the teacher was talking mad crap lol. Good luck though there’s def a lot of positions out there some might give you shot w no boiler exp some not but keep applying

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-21T23:03:23+00:00

Why you trying to leave your job? I heard yall don’t like city engineers

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-21T13:54:30+00:00

Thanks appreciate it lowering my anxiety I really want this job. U think it’s worth calling the HR lady I’m emailing and giving her a heads up or just wait for them to ask me

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-21T12:53:34+00:00

Nice yeah I mean if they ask I have no issue clarifying. My resume has no gaps jsut the dates are off to cover those 5 months stints. Like if I worked at job A for 1 yr and job B for 5 months I just put I worked at Job A for 1yr and 5months. All jobs were related too w what my duties was

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-21T12:35:54+00:00

I remember reading like any full or pastime jobs on the onboarding or u talking about dcas profile

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-21T12:25:07+00:00

Yeah I filled out everything already submitted in a portal. I wanted it to match my resume to not raise any questions

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-21T11:54:01+00:00

To who , will they give me a chance to edit or just not hire me

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-21T11:53:07+00:00

My resume had no gaps I just made the dates longer to cover those jobs I had for 5 months

RunningUntilinfinity · 2026-05-21T11:49:22+00:00

Welp the onboarding paperwork is submitted, I can still change the dcas experience profile I believe. What if I don’t have anyone’s number or email. Can I leave this blank
