I agree with what someone else posted about NHE. The test I took had hardly any questions on what a personal trainer should know like anatomy, body systems, or workout details. Even with my Kinesiology degree and 20 years in fitness, I saw questions on topics I've never encountered. The questions were also often unclear. I passed the ACSM CPT exam easily the next week, so I know it wasn't me. I suspect NHE recruits anyone with 'fitness' on their resume hoping they'll pay for the study guide, which isn't required but many fail even after buying it. If you have a strong science background, extensive nutrition knowledge like a registered dietitian, are a fast typist, and have strong analytical skills for word association/deduction questions, this test might work. Otherwise, if you've been in fitness practice for years, you'll likely fail and lose any money spent on study materials.

NHE contacted me via email and we scheduled a phone interview. It was brief, about 10-15 minutes, and seemed fine. They asked about my background and job-relevant questions. The day after, the VP-HR started emailing me about the HR review. I'm now in the final stage and a bit anxious because of negative online reviews suggesting it's a scam. However, I haven't encountered any issues and don't see the point of such an elaborate scam, so I'm hopeful it's legit.

So the interview process I'm going through right now is just like what they say on the website. First, they looked at my resume. Then I had to do this online test about Exercise Science and write a little bit about how I learned that stuff. Now I'm getting ready to take the Master Trainer test, and if I pass, I get the job. You can check out the website too, under 'career board', click 'recruitment process' and it shows you exactly what everyone has to do.

Interviews can be conducted over the phone or in person, depending on where you live. The specific interview process can also vary based on the job you're applying for and your past experience. Since I worked as a Facebook contributor, a lot of my interview focused on my writing and research abilities. I recall taking an exam, which I passed on my first try. They also had me write an article for them to review.
