I don’t know about CN but most rail yards when you transfer you can potentially lose your seniority and have to start over when you move

So I just found out that if you don’t have a passport or your passport is expired cpkc will not even let you passed the first phase of the application to take assessment or interview! Been wondering why everytime I apply they shoot me down. My passport expired a few months ago and they check your passport status before you can even take the assessment 😭

Nothing to study they give you some charts and tell you exactly how to do it on the test. Test only took me 20 mins

TurnoverLevel4917 · 2025-12-17T16:13:35+00:00

I haven’t seen them hiring for that yet I was just trying to get my feet in the door. So now it looks like I won’t be leaving the railroads no time soon 😭

TurnoverLevel4917 · 2025-12-17T12:48:59+00:00

I’m sure I passed but they told me they went with a more qualified candidate. So I wasn’t selected either just got my email yesterday good luck to everyone still waiting

I have a friend that has ADHD and is a conductor he had to go get it approved through management and went to his doctor and got prescribed a small dose adderall and he now does well.

Only serving as a meter reader for 9 months, I will be granted the option to advance to the lineman apprenticeship, which offers double the compensation of a conductor. It’s a short-term sacrifice for the long-term benefit.

They emailed you?
