    Today I have tried these aptitude tests for the ESB Apprenticeship.

    Some cocky pricks say to me its a thing of nothing and can sail through the damn blasted thing, and the whole thing is gobledygook.

    Its unfair of em to make tests like this as none of this **** is thought at school like, and Bord Gais & Eir have exactly the same frigging questions.

    Your given these shapes to figure out and only look like what youd get on your final mechanical engineer degree exam.

    That whole aptitude system should be scrapped. PERIOD!

    Agreed! It's a bloody disgrace and a scandal!! Who do they think they are? Assessing candidates' aptitude for the training? Using aptitude tests?!?

    Is a bloody disgrace, Joe. This kip has gone to the dogs altogether. What next? Interviews? To choose the most suitable candidates from a shortlist of applicants who demonstrate an aptitude for the training?!?

    :mad:

    The aptitude test while seeming like it has nothing to do with the job, it assists in assessing the candidates ability in spacial relations.
