Management Test Battery (MTB) Exam?

[bigtest]

If I may ask you, who approached you and why? Is it related to you completing your BSBA at TESU?

It is related to completing my degree, but indirectly.

Basically, a former coworker who works for the City of San Francisco knows I just completed my degree and has recommended me for a management position in the city. Since this role requires a bachelor's degree (in business or IT) at a minimum, I just became eligible. The MTB exam is apparently a requirement for this kind of civil service position. The exam is by invitation only and they only offer it a few times a year, so I must take it in two weeks to qualify for this position.

I've never worked in civil service before, but it seems interesting so I figured I'd pursue it to see where it leads.

Merlin - did you take the test on March 1st?  I am interested in learning more about this test and have a MTB coming up on March 13th.  Could you please share your experience here and also let me know if the prep book on Amazon was at all helpful?
