Technical Presentation Group

It was a panel interview with a hands-on electrical test. I think I'll have to come back after the first interview because I had to wire a motor starter circuit. I was interviewed by four people: the manager, an engineer, an electrician, and HR. Expect a long wait for the background and drug test processing.
