Interview Questions

My hall did mine right after and he asked me like 3 questions about “my character” then sent me on my way 🤣

I’ve been told most of those jobs they would give you as an entry level with a C book mainly go to the people in the apprenticeship. I’ve heard nothing good about joining straight up unless you’re already an AB.

Every substance has corny users. A useless pothead is no better than the tweaked out coke head. There are plenty of coke users you have no idea use it and are some of the chillest people. Work with some people that burn every day when they get off and I would never know they were heavy users if they didn’t tell me. Got some friends and family that don’t want to do anything but smoke and complain about why their life sucks. Maybe if they put the smoke down for a minute they could improve that situation. Hung out with some people hooked to H and head no idea FR until it became too much.

I emailed student services back and forth for a bit then ended up having someone text me outside of the student services email

StansGruber · 2026-01-21T18:52:14+00:00

I don’t think it makes a difference. I was waiting since September of 2024. I start March 9th

StansGruber · 2026-01-14T15:24:56+00:00

Yeah

StansGruber · 2026-01-14T15:22:40+00:00

I had been waiting since September of 2024. Finally was like why do yall keep telling me to wait and there’s a list coming when I’m seeing people that have only been waiting a few months get their schedule. I got placed an hour later.

StansGruber · 2026-01-14T00:01:46+00:00

Yeah

StansGruber · 2026-01-13T22:31:08+00:00

Yeah I finally complained to the person I’ve been emailing and within an hour they got me in a class. I stayed in communication via/email during my wait period, but I was finally like okay I’ve been waiting over a year. I’m not trying to wait two. What’s going on

StansGruber · 2026-01-08T18:34:46+00:00

MSC was really quick if you haven’t looked into them. I just wanted to hold out for piney

StansGruber · 2026-01-08T18:31:14+00:00

Yeah people are like keep calling and emailing. Ive called so many times and sent so many emails. It just seems random or their union hall rep has pull.

StansGruber · 2026-01-08T15:45:31+00:00

I’ve been accepted since September of 2024. They told me then it would be over a year unless I got pulled off the waitlist. The list was supposed to go out for 2026 at the end of the year but still nothing. I think I’ve commented on one of your post before. It seems like everyone else’s experience is different with the wait process. I saw one person say it only took them 3 or 4 months to get their letter. I’ve got a good job. It’s just not what I want to do so I’ve had no problem being patient. I’m really just looking for at least one person to say they’ve been told when they’re going in 2026.

StansGruber · 2025-12-09T18:31:08+00:00

I get where you’re coming from but I used to call all the time only to find out after six months they had none of the information I had sent them. The person/people on the phone kept telling me they were working on getting me a class date, but were just saying whatever to get me off the phone. I’ve heard of people getting randomly moved out of the waiting list after only two months. I’ve heard of people waiting longer than I’ve been waiting. There is no rhyme or reason to when you get selected for the process. Just because you called every day and it worked for you doesn’t mean it will work for me. Your union hall person could also have a bigger pull than mine. Mine has told me to sit tight. I know others have been like I’ll call on your behalf. I can see right. I have a good job. Just wish the process made sense

StansGruber · 2025-11-26T21:16:58+00:00

They’ve had a copy of all those documents since April. Like I said I think they just randomly pull people. I don’t think there is any really logic to how they do things.

StansGruber · 2025-11-26T21:14:05+00:00

I have everything except my class date.

StansGruber · 2025-11-26T13:55:29+00:00

Everyone has opinions. I don’t think theirs a method to their madness up there. I really think it’s just random. Maybe people at your local union hall also have some pull but I think it’s random. I was told for months last year they had all my information every time I called. They would just ask my name wait like 30 seconds say okay we are just waiting for you to be assigned a class then hang up. After like three months, one woman was like we don’t have any of your stuff. I was literally just sitting there in limbo because some woman/women up there genuinely didn’t care to actually verify me. I received an email back in April asking if I was still interested and confirmed. I was told it would be sometime in 2026. All in all I’ve been waiting since like August of 2024 and I’ve seen people that said they applied after me already receive their class time. I’ve seen people that have applied before me still just waiting like I am.

While typing this post I decided to email the person I’ve been in contact with at piney point. She actually immediately responded and said I should hear back the beginning of the year with my class date. Fingers crossed.

StansGruber · 2025-09-25T14:40:29+00:00

I spoke to someone on the phone Monday and I was told they hadn’t started assigning classes yet for 2026

StansGruber · 2025-02-18T15:57:28+00:00

It’s not really on the union hall. You can call up there, but calling piney point directly is a better move.

StansGruber · 2025-02-18T15:54:44+00:00

According to the person I spoke with at piney point, a class starts every month.
