flatpack Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 I did it back July. Mate it's piss easy, if you're a carpenter that has worked for any length of time you'll walk it. The guy at the other end it a carpenter, the test is very informal, more of a conversation. He asks how you'd complete certain tasks, he told me at the start of the test that the more detail I went into, the shorter the test. 20 mins minimum and2 hrs maximum, we were finished in 25 minutes. I can't remember everything but he asked me about: Health & Safety WhereI could find out detail info for a job from (the drawings) How to fix a traditional hipped roof How to fix a trussed roof How I'd lay timber joists and floor boards How to fix a window frame How to fix a staircase. All easy tasks that you no doubt have done. The health and safety questions were about Oz, which I explained I hadn't worked there but I explained how **** works here and then we discussed how some things are different in Oz. Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
