Potential job titles for this role include: Civil Engineer, Civil Engineering Technician, Civil Drafter, Architectural and Civil Drafter, Architectural and Engineering Manager, Design Engineer, Structural Engineer

What It’s Best Used For

This test is best used during the early stages of recruitment or internal promotion cycles to verify core design and structural competencies for graduates, individual contributors, supervisors, and managers before making final placement decisions.

  • Targeting Infrastructure & Design Roles: It is ideal for screening candidates for positions such as Civil Engineers, Structural Engineers, Civil Drafters, Design Engineers, and Engineering Managers.
  • Verifying Structural Mechanics: The test measures a candidate’s grasp of applied mechanics, concrete technology, steel structures, the strength of materials, and structural theory.
  • Evaluating Earth & Water Resources: It assesses critical geotechnical and environmental competencies, including soil mechanics, engineering geology, hydraulic engineering, and water supply systems.
  • Gauging Transit & Land Surveying Skills: The modules check an applicant’s command over highway, railway, and traffic engineering, alongside surveying, estimation, and cost tracking.
  • Isolating Technical Gaps: Employers receive an immediate online score report delivering an overall metric alongside broken-down performance insights in Structural Engineering, Geotechnical and Water Resources, and Transportation and Surveying.
The tool utilizes US English and is fully legal for use in Canada.
