    I applied for the senior executive engineer roles that were on publicjobs.ie recently.

    I got an email saying that there would be an aptitude test. Is there any way to practices these before hand?

    The email should have contained a link to where you can do practice tests and there's a sample in the booklet, IIRC. I think there are different tests for the civil service and local authorities, though - the Senior Executive Officer job similation sample test was quite different to the APO test I did last year.

    I read the email on my phone and didnt notice anything. Will look on the laptop later.

    Godtabh, Did you end up taking the aptitude tests? I am in the same boat now, could you give any advice or let me know what they included?
