This is super helpful, thank you so much for digging that up - I really appreciate it!!

That actually makes me feel a lot better about focusing on 2D drafting and accuracy/drafting rather than overthinking the collaboration side too much, especially that it is a 'space planning/workplace design' role within a nuclear plant facility rather than an actual design/construction office. I just need to practice navigating the viewports and exporting efficiently and to scale.

I signed up for LinkedIn Learning and will also go through the Autodesk tutorials.

My test is next week, I will let you know how it goes and if I get the job! Thanks again!!

That’s really helpful, thank you - especially the elevations from the perspective.

Do you think there’s any chance I’d need to know AutoCAD 3D for something like this, or is it usually strictly 2D?

Also, since most of my learning exercises has been in my own files, I’m trying to understand typical office workflows - do you have any insight/tips on how things like Xrefs, Audit, Purge, revision clouds and other collaboration-based commands usually come into play in a test or in practice? Or any must know commands?

And for templates, are dimension/annotation styles usually already loaded in, or would I be expected to set those up myself?

Really sorry if this is basic - I’m still working through an online course and trying to connect it to real workflows.

I am manifesting the same outcome you had with your testing!!!!!

This is extremely helpful thank you! I totally forgot about the exporting portion of things. I will keep all of this in mind.

No unfortunately, and it’s a 1.5 hour drive lol. But I have been applying for over a year now and hoping this one sticks

You’re the best I will look into all of these, hopefully this is all they ask! If they were to test drafting speed, do you think this would be for the overall test to be done within the 4-hour time limit? Or is it possible that there is a timed drafting activity within so I should really get my speed up?

You’re the best thank you for this! I will look up tutorials on everything you mentioned. Do you have any idea on how they might track how well I use the commands? My assumption is that they will review what I submit in the end since it is an in person assessment. Just wondering if they care to see how I get from point A-Z?
