Home Forums Introduction Welcome to Elevator Trader Local #1 New York City

I ranked 197.. I guess I should be happy with that.

Ranked 120, not as bad as I thought.

That’s a nice number Albomuch. Drgut you should be good also. What exactly is the point of ranking up to 1000 if they aren’t going to hire hat many people in 2 years? I also heard that these lists are sometimes good for 4 years from people in industry. Don’t know how true that is.

There got to be a reason there is so many more people this time around

I’m 1003 and I was surprised too. I didn’t expect a great number because I don’t have much experience but the interview went really well. I’m starting a pre-apprentice gig with local 740 in a few weeks so it didn’t sting as bad as it would’ve.

hope you right, or maybe the glitch added zeros and one's to all the rankings by mistake lol

Hopefully the reason there is so many people is because they are planning on calling a lot of apprentices.

Did any of you guys get the confirmation email that they said they would send out this week?

I just reread the email we got last week and we should be getting an email with our contact information so we can verify it is correct. I haven't received it yet.

They updated the site today they are up to #17

What is the current top hourly wage for local 1?

Check out this prevailing wage schedule. Union wages are usually pretty close if not identical to prevailing wages.

It’s been quiet in here.. did anyone hear any news? The list hasn’t been updated in a couple months now.

Says recruitment number is at 183, I plan on applying in 2020. Do wage rates differ in Locals? Or all the same?

Wage rates differ between Locals. Local 1 negotiates their own contracts so things work a little differently with them but I have seen the Local 3 and Local 5 booklets with different wage rates before I came to Local 1. Also there is different wage rates for the type of work you are doing, construction obviously paying the highest followed by Mod and Maintenance being lower.

That's not true for all locals

From the date, you got your application when did you sit for your test?
I also passed my exam 2016, failed the interview though

Hey was just wondering if you ever got called?
