Whether or not you need to go through testing depends on the specific job. For example, if you applied to be an Automotive Repairperson, you will need to take a tools test.

The employment representative will let you know what type of testing may be required.
Successful applicants will be contacted by phone and scheduled to complete a competency-based interview. You will be contacted based on hiring needs and the order we received your completed application.
When you report for the interview, you will need to bring proof of education level.
Also, please let us know if your address or phone number has changed and needs to be updated.
