The mechanical engineering test assesses candidates' knowledge of concepts, principles, and best practices in various engineering branches such as mechanics, thermodynamics, material science, and electricity.
It's an ideal test for pre-employment screening. A good mechanical engineer needs to understand engineering physics, mathematics principles, and materials science in order to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems.
This online test requires candidates to choose correct answers about problems from different engineering fields and to calculate solutions of various engineering problems.
Sample public questions
A company is developing a temperature alarm, based on the schema below, that should close an electric circuit when the temperature rises above 150°C:
| Linear coefficient of thermal expansion (x10-6K-1) | Volumetric mass density (kg/m3) | Melting point (°C) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brass | 13 | 8600 | 1000 |
| Copper | 17 | 8940 | 1100 |
| Iron | 11.8 | 7870 | 1500 |
| Mercury | 181 | 13540 | -39 |
| Polystyrene | 70 | 1060 | 100 |
| Steel | 12 | 7800 | 1600 |
Based on available materials and their properties, choose materials for the temperature alarm that require the smallest temperature difference to do the task.
For Material 1: ___
For Material 2: ___

What others say
Simple, straight-forward technical testing
TestDome is simple, provides a reasonable (though not extensive) battery of tests to choose from, and doesn't take the candidate an inordinate amount of time. It also simulates working pressure with the time limits.
