I'm interested in becoming an MTA mechanic. I’ve heard the pay is strong and the unions offer good protection and benefits.

Would it make sense to go through two years of training and relocate to New York for this kind of job? Or is it extremely competitive, with most positions already taken and union hiring making it hard for outsiders to get in?

Any insight on how the process works or what to expect would be appreciated.

It's this. An non-public facing MTA job is like a winning lottery ticket.
