Amtrak PD- NY

[NARDY]

If you are a current LEO , I don't think we get a email with the test invitation. I'm guessing after the testing portion (and may include the medical, psych, PT/JST)
of the hiring process ends they will be contacting us..just my guess

[NARDY]

Interested to hear of anyone's experience doing a lateral to APD.

Couple of weeks ago I've met a APD SGT close to my sector. He told me everything transfers over. The only thing for us to do is the range prior to your starting date. I believe we'll be contacted after the new recruits finish all their pre-hiring phase(s).

[NARDY]

Oooh then the rest of us are out then....
but good luck to you CloudPuncher !

Don't give up yet..

I'm a current LEO and I got the email to take the test.

[All_Grip]

I am a current LEO but received nothing. I applied pretty late, about a week before it closed so who knows.

[Josel1992]

I know several people that applied and got a thanks but no thanks email several weeks ago ... some that got the test invitation and some that haven’t received neither ... I haven’t received neither .. and all these people I’m talking about are current law enforcement

[Segurosky3410]

I got the no thanks and I have LEO experience. Sucks but I hope u land the job.

[boconnor]

Did your status change also on the job management section?

[Josel1992]

[boconnor]

Who do you work for?

I didn't get that email...should be a good sign

[Theout]

Not getting an email ( no thanks one) doesn’t mean anything . Last go round applications were submitted 12/2016 and the thanks/ no thanks email was sent out in August of 2017.
Of course I would like to be wrong and receive the testing email ( later ) but got to stay realistic in this Job hunt .

[All_Grip]

How did the test go for everyone? I suppose recieving the the test invitation might depend on who you work for. NYPD members should be a straight lateral since they use their academy etc etc.

[boconnor]

Where do you get that they use their academy?

[Josel1992]

They do, if you live in NY they use NYPD academy if you live in NJ you go to Fletc I asked them at Penn Station

[boconnor]

Damn. I guess that's changed since the last time I spoke to them lol. Used to be Rockland's academy if you were in NYC. Fletc if you were Jersey

[jdrew]

Anyone hear anything new?

[NARDY]

Nothing here

[NARDY]

It was faster to get hired as a private contractor overseas. All the paperwork completed (medical, physical, training ecc) and contract signed than to be called by Amtrak PD lol

The only thing left is for the company to buy the plane ticket

With my luck they'll call me when I'm there hahaha. Oh well one more spot open for you guys.

good luck

[All_Grip]

I recieved the assessment email today for what it's worth.

[boconnor]

Was this for the posting from like February? Or another posting?

[All_Grip]

February 2019

Did he say if time carried over, and if starting pay would differ for certified officers?

[All_Grip]

Time carries but they are 30/60 iirc. Pay will go up with previous exp.
