NTN Tests - FireTEAM Firefighter Testing There are four components to the FireTEAM Testing System: a video-based human relations test, a mechanical aptitude test, a math test and a reading ability test. FireTEAM Video-Based Human Relations Test Part I FireTEAM Video-Based Human Relations Test focuses on teamwork and human relations skills and was specifically designed for firefighters. Candidates watch a video segment, then choose the BEST course of action in a multiple-choice format. This test is presented on computer or video and the items play without stopping. Part II In addition to answering the Part I questions of FireTEAM Video-Based Human Relations Test, candidates are instructed to pay attention to the behaviors of the individual firefighters and supervisors portrayed. Part II of FireTEAM Video-Based Human Relations Test consists of questions about these characters. Part II immediately follows Part I. FireTEAM Mechanical Test FireTEAM Mechanical Test is a multiple-choice mechanical aptitude test presented on video.
