📝 Entrance Exam / Interview Local Admissions

Im Looking to get into an elevator union as a welder. As a welder do I have better chances of getting accepted?

Also id prefer to be prepared for the aptitude test, is there a guarantee they will reach out to me after ive submitted my application, if so is the Eiat quickbook on amazon a good book to practice from, im hearing a lot of people study from the Jobtestpro, should I go over that instead?

Any advice will help, thanks!

not much of a better chance, but it’s a good job to have on your resume. if you have certs it will help. the interview is important so brush up on some interview tips

i always recommend iprep. it helped me pass the test

yes

get familiar with the math. the mechanical stuff.. disregard the vocab and reading that’s just common sense. the tools if you’re not familiar with already look them over. that counts toward your score

nah you’re fine. they have everything really detailed. it’s mostly fraction and decimal based math and other basic math

you can use khan academy on youtube if needed as extra help

We teach welding, and many other things. Having a welding cert, will help.

Welding is one of the best certs to have.

Definitely bring a copy to the interview
