BART publishes job descriptions, open recruitments and pay schedules through its careers pages. Each job description can identify the job category and, where applicable, the union representing that classification.

Before you apply

  • Read the job description, not just the recruitment headline.
  • Check the effective date on the pay schedule.
  • Review the benefits summary and the collective bargaining agreement if the job is represented.
  • Use the official application portal for active recruitments.

Benefits listed by BART

BART describes its package as including CalPERS pension benefits, medical, vision and dental coverage, paid sick leave, holidays and vacation, plus investment programs. Specific terms can change, so applicants should rely on the current recruitment and plan documents for a particular job.
