Once you have submitted a qualifying online application we will schedule you for an Aptitude Test.
The Electrical Industry Aptitude Test consists of 2 sections; math and reading comprehension. The Algebra and Functions section entails 33 questions within 46 minutes. The Reading Comprehension section consists of 36 questions within 51 minutes. There will be a short break between the two sections. There are no penalties for guessing. Your score will be based on the number of items you answer correctly. You will not be allowed to use a calculator for the test. Sample questions can be found HERE.
Tests are scored by an independent facility. We will receive the results electronically immediately after the testing session. If you receive a qualifying score you will be scheduled for an interview. Interviews are conducted once per year in January/February/March. If you do not obtain a qualifying score on the Aptitude Test you must wait three months before you can test again.
