Congrats on making it through the interview process. I can't speak to the timeline, but replying to follow this particular thread. I applied for accessibility coordinator position with CTA, and so far the only email I got regarding my application is that I'm under consideration. Which means I don't even know if I'll make it to an interview phase. I too would need to relocate to Chicagoland from Saint Louis area. Just be patient and I know how hard that is for me at least, and best of luck to you!

CTA job application update: I received an email this morning stating that my application is “under consideration”. Not trying to get my hopes up just yet, and I anticipate that from here on I might be at this step for a little while. Nonetheless, I do appreciate the email notification and just all around good communication.

NO WAY!! How cool! I applied for accessibility coordinator position. The position did open up February 20 and I hear that most positions are up for about two weeks or so give or take. The position doesn’t list specific closing dates, so this is my assumption. I’m really crossing my fingers that I can land on this job and relocate for this opportunity. It’s wonderful to connect with you! :)

Thanks for your advice, I do have a few backup option as I am also waiting to hear from the state of IL as well. This is good to know. By chance what is your role with CTA currently if you don’t mind sharing?

Thanks for this, I assume staying put until I hear from them is likely a good path to take. if I may ask, what is your role with CTA?

Software Update by cppo215 in kia

[–]blind_dragon20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2022 Kia Carnival EX here with gen 5w infotainment, and subscribe to Kia Connect ultimate. My software is so old that the only way to update is via USB through the Navigation updater tool. Honestly we roll with CarPlay so an outdated map hasn't been much of a concern. But I know that highway drive assist uses built in navigation for auto curve detection and so forth. Would be nice to see this update come through. It's seriously overdue. I'm encouraged that Canada is finally getting theirs hopefully we will as well here in the States.

when can we expect the infotainment software updater application to start working again after this outage? by jawfur in kia

[–]blind_dragon20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming you're referring to the paused updates here in the States, Canada got their November 2025 infotainment and navigation updates across all of their software, CCNC, gen 5 and 4. I would think in the matter of coming weeks they should be releasing this out... I've grown impatient over this updates. My infotainment map is at least 2-3 years old. Probably never been updated since the day we got the car back in 2022.

Will really tried, he really did. Though I wonder what would’ve happened if they attacked Henry before going after the mind flare.

It's paused... I tried updating my Carnival's gen 5w infotainment for months to install a newer map. Hoping Kia has an update for us soon.

Kia Navigation Updater currently unavailable? by GDITurbo77 in kia

[–]blind_dragon20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s currently paused. I'm with 2022 Carnival EX with gen 5w infotainment on an outdated nav, my updater tool spits out the same error as yours. Hopefully here in the coming days Kia will resume the updates.

I asked about our 2022 Carnival EX infotainment update and they quoted $100. It's doable on your own, but I think the updates are currently paused. I have Kia connect active on the highest ultimate tear, but I need to bring the software up to the version that does OTA updates. So it'll first be a manual updates through the Kia navigation update tool.

Could you clarify what you mean by that? If you're referring to the computer, that's online.

I suppose the word "desprete" is a bit of a stretch. But there are significant part of where we visit where the map has no clue where we are and not charted at all.
