state/county/city job testing

JS82 ยท 2009-07-11 16:57

does anyone or has anyone ever tested for a state, county or city job before? I am getting ready to do some testing and was wondering what kind of test the first written test is on? safety? general knowledge? my friend lives in reno and he applied for a job with the city of sparks(not an operator position) and said his written test was a picture of a claw hammer and with multiple answers asked him what kind of hammer it was and same with screw drivers and so on. i was wondering if the test will be that simple or what? im kind of nervous because im not sure what kind of material the test will cover. Thanks...

    If anyone does a search for this inquiring about the same thing. my test was over 100 questions, it consisted of questions about how well i take verbal directions, written directions, quized me on regular driving laws(kinda like a dmv test) equipment maintainence, asphalt repair, management skills
