    Question Question for current or x dish employees.

    ADVERTS 1
    This is a simple question but yet kinda dumb at the same time. I recently got a job interview appointment at dish and its coming up in a couple of days. When I took the assessment test it had some simple math problems on them even though they were easy questions I still had trouble figuring them out. It is obvious my math skills are very rusty and need to polish them a bit. My question is what type of math questions do they ask you on your pre employment test? Like is is just calculating percentages or pre algebra? please if anybody has any kind of information it would help tremendously, thank you.

    I think they test you on differential equation.

    Sorry for not reading your suggestion clearly. And no its not that type of math its more of a basic math type test. I know since its basic it means it must be easy, I just want to see what exactly type of questions they will be asking but that might not be possible. Oh well I have been practicing my math but if anybody out their has a tip please post .

    They only use "fuzzy math" at E*, as evidenced by their HD channel count!

    SERIOUSLY PEOPLE, THERE REALLY IS A DIFFERENCE AND IT ISN'T HARD TO FIGURE OUT!!!
    >Loose=not tight, as in: Babette's garter is really loose and she may lose it.
    >Lose
    =don't have it anymore, as in: Babette will lose her garter because it is really loose.
    >Could care less=you can actually care less even more than what you do now.
    >Couldn't care less=there is absolutely no more caring that can be cared about

    If Dish Network required skill in differential equations I don't think anybody would have a job there, at least not doing installs.
