Hi johnnyb
im a 36 year old wannabe electrician so i applied to my local college to enroll on a c&g 2330 electrical course full time.They replied to me and arranged an interview to see if they think im suitable for the course.Im just not sure what to expect is it just like a job interview

 

[johnnyb]

To be honest mate, i am not sure, when i went to college ?yrs ago we just paid the fee and away you went, i think you will have to wait for some of the younger lads to answer youQ.

Hey.

Just be yourself, look interested and remember if you're paying then they want you there!!!

Cheers

hi mate, i am just coming the end of 2330 level 3, I was about your age when i started. the interview was just to see what i wanted. Dont wont to worry you but i had to take an online english and maths test. there is a lot of science stuff in the course, and they just want to make sure you will be able to cope with it. SURE YOU WILL OK, GOOD LUCK.

If i can be a little subjective here, i think the interviews are for them to see if you are capable of doing and completing the course with a pass.

The training centers can look bad if they keep having candidates that fail the course.

Having said that, providing you show willing you wont have a problem.

Good luck!

Hi,
I had an interview when i first applied for the course i'm currently on my 2330-203 at the moment we done 2yrs in 1yr last year.About the interview its just to ask why you want to progress as a spark etc no tricky questions and nothing to try and catch you out you also fill out a form i had no English or Maths online test the whole interview will take about 15-20mins if that!

Thanks for the replies. Went to the interview today no tests just talked about the course and work I’ve done. The outcome was I will receive a letter of acceptance and he said I will see you in September. Happy days

Hi
The laws have changed what i have been told by other people is that they need to see if you have a good standard of maths and english, some colleges will not take you unless you have certain QUALIFICATIONS.

Thanks

Hi sonnyjim, which college are you going to?

 

[Gidion]

Some colleges run a basic aptitude test, ie literacy and numeracy, just to see if the course you are applying for is suitable to you. Some colleges also require you to take a CITB (Construction Industry Training Board) test, which they told me when passed, makes you more employable. I did one a few weeks ago - it was about an hour long and consisted of questions on building plans and some calculations.
