The Dish Network hiring process consists of the following steps:

1. Application – Dish Network utilizes the iCims applicant tracking system (ATS) for its five-step application. 
2. Assessment tests – The Dish Network Wonderlic Test, Verify G+ Test (Also known as SHL test), and Watson Glaser Test are used to measure the abilities of prospective employees. To pass these tests, start preparing as soon as you know you are taking them using realistic test practice.
3. Interview – There may be several rounds of interviews, including a preliminary interview and in-person interviews. Start preparing for the various interviews with JobTestPrep’s Interview PrepPack™.
4. Background Check – Dish Network hiring the most qualified, safe, and trustworthy candidates is not an easy task, which is why Dish Network takes background checks very seriously. This step can take some time to complete, so be patient as you wait to hear back from the company.

The tests used by Dish Network are not easy - they are meant to pick out the very best of the applicants.

Each of the three tests comes with its own challenges - but with the preparation pack's tips, tricks, sample tests, and thorough feedback for each test, you can make sure you get the best results and secure your employment.

Let's go over each test and see what challenges it offers:

For most positions dealing with engineering and coding duties, the company employs 2024 updated G+ SHL tests to measure your abilities. This test has two versions: Mobile-Enabled Interactive and Standard Multiple-Choice.

* Interactive – you will be able to interact with the test (drag-and-drop, connect the dots, etc.)

** Adaptive - questions become harder when you answer right and easier when you answer wrong.

Both versions of the test are taken online via SHL's testing platform: Talent Central.

The PrepPack covers both versions of the SHL G+ test, so don't worry!

Either way, the test includes three topics:

This part of the assessment focuses on your ability to extract, calculate, and come to conclusions based on numerical data.

SHL Inductive questions revolve around finding the logical rules represented in shapes’ color, position, etc.

The SHL Deductive questions examine your ability to draw logical conclusions out of given information. This will usually be measured by scheduling tasks or ranking items based on constraints.

The Watson Glaser test is considered one of the trickiest and most challenging tests out there among psychometric testing experts. Developed by Pearson, The Watson Glaser test is divided into five sections:

You will be presented with a single statement of facts. then, you will be given an inference - a possible conclusion you might draw from the statement.

Your task is to examine the inference and decide how true or false it is on a scale of:

• True
• Probably True
• Insufficient Data
• Probably False
• False

Note: Sometimes, in deciding whether an inference is probably true or false, you will have to use common knowledge or information.

You will be presented with different statements. Then, you will be given an assumption. Your job is to decide whether the statement being made demands the assumption to be true.

Note: These assumptions do not have to concur with reality or reason – you are not judging their common sense, but plainly whether they are made or not.

You will have to read several passages, each followed by a suggested conclusion.

Your task is to determine whether the conclusion “follows” or “does not follow” the information presented in the text.

The Watson Glaser Test Interpretation section is similar to the Deduction section we just talked about.

You will be presented with a short paragraph, for which you have to assume that everything stated in it is true. Then, you will have to decide if a certain conclusion is followed beyond a reasonable doubt from the text, or not.

Note: While section 3 (Deduction) instructions ask us to decide whether a proposed conclusion “necessarily follows”, section 4 (Interpretation) offers a disjunction: The proposed conclusion can necessarily follow or probably follow (beyond a reasonable doubt).

In this final Watson Glaser test section, you will be presented with a question or a topic, followed by several arguments you need to evaluate. For each argument, you will have to determine whether it is “strong” or “weak”.

The Wonderlic Cognitive Ability test (formerly 'Wonderlic Personnel test') can be taken from a remote online location (such as at home). Dish Network uses the full version. with 50 questions and 12 minutes to complete them. The test questions focus on the cognitive aspects of the job, including problem-solving, learning, and adaptation skills.

The Wonderlic Test consists of the following four sections:

A large section of the Dish Network Wonderlic Test deals in math. Do not be alarmed- you will not need to do advanced calculations, but being able to think mathematically is required.

This part tests your mastery of the English language and is also a major component of the test. A large vocabulary and solid grasp of grammar are necessary to pass this part with a sufficient score.

 This category has fewer questions than the previous two but is still important to score well on.

The question will present two sentences and a conclusion. You are asked to decide if the conclusion can be reached from the two statements.

 This type is similar in its weight to the logic section, but also must be prepared for. It includes questions regarding the calendar, common abbreviations, or (rarely) pattern recognition questions.

 The Combined Dish Network PrepPack has a whole section filled with all four Wonderlic question categories.

Preparing for an interview can be difficult as companies devise new techniques and questions to knock you off your kilter. HR managers want to know how you are going to handle criticism in the moment by trying to use scare tactics (i.e. no smiles during the interview), using the stress interview (i.e. rapid-fire questioning) or by using the classic weakness question.

First understand that the interviewer is not out to get you, but to find the best candidate who can “take the heat”. Don’t be nervous -The Dish Network PrepPack™ also has a section for preparing and acing the interview, so you're covered!

But until you get it, here are some directions on what questions to prepare for:

Depending on the job position and level, the following are some interview questions you may encounter at Dish Network:

• Have you ever worked as a [prospective position] before?
• How do you deal with angry customers?
• What did you like and dislike about your previous job?
• How do you handle professional rejection?
• Tell us about your professional goals.
