Hi guys, what type of questions could I expect during a technical assessment for a service and breakdown engineer position? I have a 20 minute technical assessment to do this week and I've been told it's a written test but no idea what to expect.
 
I'd say expect ventilation questions on open flues, some basic breakdown questions. Have a quick read through your books I'm sure you'll be fine ash.
 
Is it for BG? If it is you need to learn the mantra. "It needs a power flush, and parts aren't available for this model"
 
If it's bg then they'll show you diagrams of pumps in wrong positions and what would happen, and a multiple choice on gas safety,
 
[/QUOTE Lol nope not BG.[/QUOTE]

Youre too ugly for BG anyway :)

honestly though, most "gas tests" are general run of the mill stuff that you check for everyday without even noticing :)
 
You might get something on electrical safety and isolating.

Erm what tests are they then? For the benefit of everybody else.

In my day we didn't have lighters, so we called it the swan vesta test.
