Interview at ANO 1
wherugoing:
OK, I'm a newbie to the site and I need some help getting back into the industry. I'm an ex-Navy nuke EM and I'm going to ANO 1 next week for the POSS test and interviewing. Are there any tips anyone can give me on the test and interview. What do you wear to these things? What can I expect for questioning? We're also taking a General Knowledge nuke test. Has anyone taken one of these, and if so, what can I look at to bring back my memory? I've been reading around the site about the POSS test and I feel pretty confident about that, but if anyone could help with the other questions, I'd appreciate it!!!!
By the way, if anyone is at ANO 1, I'd like to know about the shift schedule.
Roll Tide:
You want to dress for the interview at least as well as you would dress for the job. Dockers (or equivalent) and a nice shirt are worn by the field operators at many plants, so that would be appropriate. Make sure you wear good leather shoes rather than tennis shoes. Grooming, of course, should be professional. It isn't the time to let your haircut slide or try to grow a handle-bar mustache.
shayne:
You want to be able to concentrate on the tests, not what you are wearing. So keep it business casual as Roll Tide had said and make sure that you are comfortable wearing it. The last thing you need is to not pass the testing because you develop a complex about your dress.
Good luck on the exams.

Does anyone know if Arkansas Nuclear One hires without perspective employees traveling to Arkansas for further testing? I did a phone interview with them and after 45 minutes on the phone, they said I MUST travel to Arkansas for further interviewing and testing. Also, is the trip at my own expense? They seem to be asking a lot for pay that isn't that great. Any insight?

I don't know much, but they are flying me out from Texas, paying for my hotel stay, and a car to travel around in. I'll be there from Sunday until Tuesday.
Hope that helps!
Good Luck!!!
