    How did you handle the mandatory "assessment test" questions which comes at the end of the on-line application process?
    They are "paired" questions,and you can only pick one-such as:

    [TABLE]
    [TR]
    [TD]Assessment Questions[/TD]
    [/TR]
    [TR]
    [TD] Instructions: The paired behaviors below describe individuals in this job. Please select the one that best describes you.

    84. [TABLE]
    [TR]
    [TD]Keeps out of tight or difficult situations.[/TD]
    [/TR]
    [TR]
    [TD]Operates tractor and trailer within braking limits.[/TD]
    [/TR]
    [/TABLE]

    82. [TABLE]
    [TR]
    [TD]Smoothly accelerates.[/TD]
    [/TR]
    [TR]
    [TD]Stays focused on driving at all times.[/TD]
    [/TR]
    [/TABLE]

    83. [TABLE]
    [TR]
    [TD]Effectively communicates and interacts with mechanics and other maintenance staff.[/TD]
    [/TR]
    [TR]
    [TD]Adjusts speed and driving for weather and road conditions.
    [/TD]
    [/TR]
    [/TABLE]

    Then they'll ask the question again a little later like this:
    [/TD]
    [/TR]
    [/TABLE]

    84. [TABLE]
    [TR]
    [TD]Brings extra personal equipment and supplies for emergencies.[/TD]
    [/TR]
    [TR]
    [TD]Operates tractor and trailer within braking limits.[/TD]
    [/TR]
    [/TABLE]

    You see? What kind of psychological game is this? Anybody successfully completed this test?

    It's basically if you are smart enough to plan ahead and work smart, when you do one of the possible answers, you are conscientious enough to do the other and more.
