How to prepare for a technical ITI interview

  1. Learn the basics of your trade in your own words: what the trade does, the main tools and instruments and the usual work sequence.
  2. Revise measuring and testing instruments for your trade, and be ready to say what each one measures and how you read it.
  3. Know the safety rules that apply in your workshop: PPE, lockout and tagout, safe handling of tools, electricity, chemicals and heavy parts.
  4. Prepare one job from your training or apprenticeship and explain it step by step, including a fault you found and how you fixed it.
  5. Practise explaining a task aloud in 30 to 60 seconds; interviewers listen for clear steps rather than memorised lines.
  6. Carry your certificates, and keep a short note of your project or practical work ready.

Frequently asked questions

Which post should I open for my trade?

Each card lists the trades it covers. Open the card that contains your trade and look for the section with your trade’s name; every trade has its own set of 20 questions.

Are these questions for freshers?

Yes. They are written for ITI pass-outs and apprentices facing their first interview or trade test, but experienced candidates can use them for quick revision.

How should I practise the answers?

Read a question, say your answer aloud in your own words, then compare with the post. Add one real example from your workshop, practical or apprenticeship so the answer sounds like yours.

Will the interviewer ask practical questions too?

Often yes. For technical trades expect to name tools and instruments, read a simple drawing or circuit, explain a safe working sequence and describe how you would find a fault. Practise explaining a job step by step.

What if my trade is not listed here?

Check the other parts of this series: Part 2 (Civil/Construction, IT/Digital, Specialized/Chemical/Aero) and Part 3 (non-engineering and special trades). Pick the closest trade if your trade has a different name in your state.
