Technician at Emerson

No Offer – Interviewed in Denver, CO Jun 2010 – Reviewed Nov 23, 2011

Interview Details – This guy called me in for Electrical Test including NEC test. I told him I wasn't a Electrician, and
didn't know all the codes, but he gave me the test anyway. Quite a few more tests too Seemed
nice at the time
Never heard from him, weeks went by, I had sent him a card, emailed him and asked what was going
on, never replied.

I finally got irritated and called his cell phone over a month later and he said he would "get back to me", received a rejection letter a few days later. I traveled about 40 miles each way for an interview HE requested and he couldn't show even basic courtesy ?

Interview Question – Just tests, one after another   Answer Question
