Answer Sheet
Once all items have been passed out, Proctors may begin reading the instructions below verbatim to the candidates.
“Thank you for coming to test with National Testing Network today. You should have two pencils in front of you. On the DVD, you will be shown the materials you will need for this exam. There should be no personal belongings in the testing area at this time.
No restroom breaks will be given during the exam. If you must use the restroom during the test, please raise your hand. You will need to give all your test materials and your photo ID to the proctor before exiting the room. They will be returned to you when you return to the testing lab. Testing will not be stopped. Only one candidate is allowed in the restroom at a time.
A proctor will be present at all times, if you have any questions during the test raise your hand and they will assist you. The proctors cannot answer any questions regarding the content of the test questions. Do not disturb other candidates taking the test.
After each question is presented, you will have time to mark the answer you think is best. If you change an answer, erase it completely. Be sure to fill in bubbles completely and correctly as the answer sheets are machine scored and only properly recorded answers are given credit. You should try to answer every question, as there is no penalty for guessing.
Your score will be available to the departments in your account within three business days after you finish taking your test.”
Play Human Relations Test with Instructions from the DVD and pause when the Confidentiality Warning is completed. Have candidates sign the form. Collect forms once signed and re-seat candidates if need be.
