The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority is conducting a lottery to randomly select candidates for entry-level employment within the positions below. We expect that the list generated as a result of this lottery will be in use for approximately two (2) years. Apply online at www.mbtajoblottery.com or mail Lottery Coupon, or a copy of it, to MBTA JOB LOTTERY, P.O. Box 187289, Hamden, CT 06518. Entries must be postmarked by Saturday, December 19, 2009. Applying more than once does not increase your chances of being selected. Please refrain from calling or visiting the MBTA’s Human Resources Department to ask about your status; we will be unable to assist you as we have hired an independent agency to manage this lottery.
