Congrats Semper! When I was at the interview, I was told that if you were in the first 50 to be ready to go ASAP.... I wouldn't be surprised if you were called by 3/1. I'm 346.... so maybe by 2020 before the list is renewed? I can only hope!

Hey everyone, another hopeful from the Boston area. I ranked 180 and figured I wouldn't get in, but it seems like thats not necessarily the case (from reading this forum and a little bit on Reddit). Anyway to check where the list is at and stay updated? I hope boston 4 has as much work as all my buddies in the other trades are saying they're going to have.

They're going to be hiring in local 41 out in Springfield and also in Providence in few weeks, I'm debating if I should apply, I rather stay in Boston area, but they aren't too far out.

You'll first take a test that tests basic math, engineering and vocabulary. If you pass your then set for an interview which you are also ranked on (this ranking determines your placement on the list)
A question for others currently ranked, how do we check the list, I've called a number of people in the union hall and haven't had any luck, was also wondering if it was possible to be on two lists in different locations at once.

From what i can understand, you can be on multiple lists. Also call and ask for Dave Morgan. He is the Business agent that will let you know what number they are on.

minor update: recently talked to someone and was told theyre around high 20's on the list and to call back in 6 months. Was also told that during last 2 hiring cycles they hired into the 200's. good luck everyone.

Update; Called today, they are in “mid 50’s” Assuming they started calling off the list around March 1st, looks like they are averaging 7 a month roughly.

[Re: semperfire]
that is bad news (at least for me, 8 new hires a month would be perfect), hopefully things will pick up within the next year. does anyone happen to know how big the list is? I figured Boston would be hiring left and right.

[Re: semperfire]
called today (2/1/19), was told the list was at 60. not sure why the freeze in new hires. not so confident in my 180 ranking unless they extend the list to 3 years. good luck everyone in the top 120.

That’s disappointing, looks like they haven’t called off the list since September. If you haven’t already, checkout Reddit’s r/elevators subreddit forum,a lot of good people on there and a lot of rellavant info. One person was saying they think local 4 IUEC just did another test and recruitment not too long ago which would mess with our rankings if they did. I’m definitely calling the hall tomorrow to find out. The email with our rankings specifically states if they were to do another recruitment we would be notified.
