What applying to IUEC Local 63 involves

IUEC Local 63 covers the Oklahoma City, OK area under NEIEP’s national recruitment system. Applications are submitted through NEIEP, not to the local union office directly. Once you apply and are scheduled, you’ll sit the EIAT entrance test, and if you pass, complete a hands-on tool assessment and a JAC interview before landing on a ranked hiring list valid for 2 years.

We do not have this area’s specific application URL, class size, minimum age, or physical requirements published anywhere we can verify — those details, along with any application cap for this particular window, should be confirmed directly at neiep.org before you apply.

Apply the day the window opens, not the week after. NEIEP windows run from a few days up to about three weeks, and some fill their application cap far sooner — Portland’s Local 23 window hit its 750-application cap in under 36 hours in 2023. There is no way to know in advance whether IUEC Local 63’s window will fill fast or stay open the full stretch, so treat opening day as the deadline that matters.

The EIAT: what you’ll actually be tested on

The entrance test is the EIAT (Elevator Industry Aptitude Test): 100 multiple-choice questions, paper-administered, for a $25 fee — 35 reading (cloze fill-in-the-blank), 35 mechanical aptitude (illustrated, Bennett-style), and 30 math. You need 70% to pass, but the EIAT does not rank you — it’s a pass/fail gate only.

Your EIAT score doesn’t decide your rank — the interview does. After you pass, a hands-on tool assessment scores into a JAC interview (two interviewers, averaged, standardized rubric, 70% minimum). That interview score alone sets your position on the hiring list. Score 71% or 98% on the EIAT and you’re on equal footing walking into the interview — so prepare for both, and don’t stop at the test.
