Questions to Ask Electrician Candidates

The screening and interview processes are incredibly important, as they have a direct effect on your ability to find qualified electricians for your business. To find the right workers for your team or project, you have to ask the right questions. In this section, we’ll share with you several questions you should ask electrician candidates.

Are you licensed?

It’s best for electricians to be licensed in the state in which they operate. If your electrician is not licensed, you may find out later that their work doesn’t meet state inspection requirements. It’s not advised, under any circumstances, to get work done by an unlicensed electrician. Licensing requirements vary at the state level, so we urge you to visit your local government website and become familiar with the local laws and regulations.

What type of electrical work are you experienced in?

Different projects require electricians with defined skill sets. For more complex electrical projects, you may require candidates to have years of experience.
If you need electrical work done for a residential home, your electrician should have experience installing lights and checking wiring for residential customers. They may also need experience taking out and replacing old or defective electrical components. Whereas, if you need an electrician to work on cars, prior experience performing electrician duties for an auto repair company would be beneficial.

Once you get an idea of the candidate’s level of experience, you can then determine whether the candidate may be able to do quality work.

How do you ensure safety on the job?

The answer to the above question will give you a lot of information about the candidate’s electrical knowledge and level of expertise. Safety is paramount when it comes to any work, but electrical work can be especially dangerous given the potential hazards associated with the work. A successful candidate will have knowledge about industry-specific safety protocols and should be able to communicate them clearly.

You may need to ask additional questions based on the specific position you’re trying to fill. We hope that this content is helpful to you in your search for a great electrician you can trust.
