Written Examination for Government

[Smoky]

Hi all,

I got an email from the department of Canada government, ask me for the written examination. It also mentions it will take almost 4 hours, quiet long.

This exam includes Information Technology/Java qualification and Writing Skill in English.

Have anyone done this before? Could you please tell me what kind of area will be included?

Much appreciation for your reply.

恭喜? 恭喜? 恭喜? -- Thank you:blowzy:, but 发财 -- even doesn't think about it!

You'll pass the written skill part if you can get 55 of 100

I don't know how you figure out the test is from CRA, but you are right.
So if writing skill is like you said, what about the other part? I have no idea how big Java qualification test will be. There are too much things included in Java qualification.

If you have the same experience, is it possible that you can share some information? After this test, what is the next?

I have a friend, who is asked to take a similar exam. If anyone has any tips or suggestions on how to prepare for this exam, please share you experiences.

Thanks in advance.

I guess no one has this kind of experience. But I appreciate someone who reply my thread.
Once all done, I will post it to share with everyone.

I'm not sure if it'll have the same format, but when I took a government position test a long while back, I had to sign an NDA not to disclose any information regarding the test.

This could be serious.

以前一个同事去CRA考试，不知道是不是同一类型的，据说时间很紧
不过她有考试的sample,很多题都是一样的，所以她都没怎么看题，直接就知道答案了
我只是听说的，没考过，仅供参考 （不知道能不能找到考试题）

Thank you for your important information.
Do you think that you are able to ask your friend what kind of test she did before in CRA?

As always my appreciation is with your reply.
