I applied in-person. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at IBEW Local 102 (Parsippany, NJ) in Jun 2018
Interview
Application deadline ($20 fee): February
Aptitude Test: Mid April
Interview: Sometime around June
Orientation (+drug test): Mid July
You start when there is work available. Could be immediately, could be around September when classes start. Drug test is urinal. Interview questions have absolutely nothing to do with electrical knowledge and more to do with character. It is conducted by JATC and NECA board members (read: very iimportant people) so be presentable. With this being said, experience in the trade is preffered.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
