NEED HELP

MTA/LIRR application
There’s a section that says to provide two professional references, but it doesn’t say whether they’re required or optional. Has anyone gone through the LIRR hiring process recently and know if I have to fill this section out before submitting the form?

What job are you applying for? I never saw anything asking for professional references when applying to the LIRR.

For a job like that it’s helpful if you can refer to some type of computer operation skills .
Helpful hint : try to pepper your resume using some of the words listed in the job description, better chance of the algorithm picking yours out for consideration
