It evaluates both hardware and software troubleshooting skills, ensuring that candidates can effectively assist users with problems related to computer hardware, operating systems, and applications. The test also covers network-related issues, such as connectivity problems, DNS errors, and basic network configuration, and evaluates the candidate's ability to troubleshoot these issues.
Candidates will be assessed on their ability to support users across various platforms, including Windows, macOS, and Linux, and their knowledge of common troubleshooting tools and utilities.
