I am one semester away from getting my masters in electrical engineering. Undergrad in electrical engineering associate in electrical. With 5 years of Mechatronics experience in the automotive manufacturing industry. My question is there management positions openings. I don’t mind grinding from the bottom for a year or so, but is there a clear pathway for advancement?

[@alcobvlogs7339]

Once you join the company and show up on time and communicate well throughout your journey it will open up a management position for you quickly

Late Reply but did you have a chance to apply?

[@tonynasaofficial]

When I worked for usps I did mha, then mail handler regular then, MP7, then ET10 which is electrical technician but imo MP7 is the most easiest but ET10 is the most exciting imo

@@tonynasaofficial yeah each level has its pros cons and good times and bad times but I will be stepping up to ET 10 soon so I’ll see how it goes

I’m a Clerk now, & in my state I work at the plant. But I want to switch to MPE, I just apply on usps website ? Or am I going to ecareer ?

[@alcobvlogs7339]

@@Anastasiacooper99 you have to wait until Feb or March if you are already career they will post the flyers out around that time make sure you talk to ppl in maintenance ask questions and try to see if they have study sheets

[@noahcarroll4944]

Say I apply for the ET job and the maintenance mechanic job. Both of those use the 955 test, right? And if so, does failing the test for one job mean I can't retake it for the other? I saw something like that when I applied for the ET job

[@alcobvlogs7339]

@@noahcarroll4944 so if you apply for the ET and also apply for mechanic If you pass high enough to qualify for both, they will send you an email for whichever position opens up first but if you don’t score high enough for ET and score high enough for mechanic they’ll send you an email for you to get that position. Did I answer your question.?

I just passed ET test trying to go back for the 3rd time . I resigned a year ago because they wouldn’t let me transfer.

[@alcobvlogs7339]

@StopWarsColoImperialism Yeah I feel you some times its difficult to maneuver the way you want to which is a bummer but best of luck lmk when you get back

[@erocalypse21]

Do you know any study guides for the 955?

[@alcobvlogs7339]

@erocalypse21 Look on google for the most part in everything that is in what’s on the test content if you can screenshot it and study each of those, spatial reasoning is a big factor I’ll do a video on best current books to study and take practice tests make sure you study tools as well

So I applied for maintenance mechanic MPE, took the 955 exam and scored a 70 for the position I applied for. Got an email saying I was not eligible or suitable for that position. If I apply for another maintenance mechanic job, do I still have to wait 6 months to take the exam again even if it’s for a different position?

[@alcobvlogs7339]

@@BoatsKnows yeah for Mpe position you will need to score higher than a 70 so yeah you’re not eligible for Mpe but if you were to go from mechanic you would’ve been eligible you have to wait another six months because if you’re not in the craft of maintenance, then you can’t take the test unless six months so good luck next time you know what to expect. Stay focused study up you’ll be all right.
