Practice prompts based on occupational tasks
These Applyace practice prompts use O*NET tasks for electrical and electronics drafters. They are not reported employer questions. If you have not done a task, explain your approach and learning needs instead of inventing experience.
1. Draft detail and assembly drawings of design components, circuitry or printed circuit boards, using computer-assisted equipment or standard drafting techniques and devices.
Describe a real example of this task. What was your responsibility, and what happened?
2. Draft working drawings, wiring diagrams, wiring connection specifications, or cross-sections of underground cables, as required for instructions to installation crew.
