    Hi
    Anyone know what there aptitude test is like ??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 316 ✭✭confusedeire


    Aptitude test has 2 parts. Mechanical reasoning and fault finding. Google them and practice them. Mechanical part is ok. But the fault finding is fairly difficult.

    If you dont hear from them ring them. The go through hundreds if not thousands of applications.

    Thats part of it. If you can get to grasps with that youll be doin ok. The vistakon one yas a different layout. You only have 30 seconds per question

    There'll be two interviews one will be technical The other is more hr based. Can't really help with the hr one that's up to you to tell them what they want to hear. Name your weakness and stuff like that. Do you mind working shift. How do you deal with awkward work collegues (there's a lot of them). The technical side is on sensors pnumatics, robots and servor motors. Best of luck. Let us know how you get on.

    Got on well I think !! I had 2 interviews in 1 day. First with hr and an engineer, then was asked to wait for a second one with AIne O Dea and a manager. I think it all went ok, but hard to tell with the second one. Wait and see I guess.
    Thanks for ur help, very grateful.

    What was your interview like was there a lot of technical questions.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6 Jimmy mac876

    A lot of technical and hr based questions, moulding, plc, servo motors, robots that kind of thing. Lasts about an hour with 50/50 tech and hr.
