Interview starts with a 30 minute test which was 15 logic puzzles (?) and 5 hvac questions around 20 questions total. Hvac questions included drawing a ph diagram of the refrigeration cycle and one with subcooling and reheat, drawing a cycle on a psychrometric chart with cooling and reheat, drawing a cycle on psychrometric chart with return and supply mixing, and calculating sensible and total btu using the psychrometric chart. If you're in an AC-adjacent or not related industry memorize the equation for total btu, the equation for sensible btu, what a dcv system does and what is the benefit, the difference between vav and cav, the conversion from kW to BTUH. All of these were asked during discussion portion. Was told position was not technical during interview (?). One interviewer said he had to stop himself from asking an illegal question. Condescension. 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Addison (Orlando, FL) in May 2014
Interview
Interviewed with Upper Level Management on site for initial interview. Then about a week later asked to interview through Skype with another level of management. Thought that had went well also. Gave it a week or two and followed up and was told in the running and process was taking longer than usual. Still nothing.....asked again if still under consideration. People wonder why employees have no allegiance to companies etc. This would be a prime example of why employees or companies get bad names and or reputations, prospective employees would rather hear a yes or no and not strung along.....this is now 2nd time locally this has happened and not only to me. It seems to be a pattern of behavior around this area.
