Candidates should have (a) (i) a Certificate in Mechanical Engineering from a Hong Kong polytechnic/polytechnic university or Hong Kong Institute of Vocational Education/technical college/technical institute, or equivalent [see Note (1)]; or (ii) five years' relevant experience as a skilled worker in mechanical engineering or equivalent field; or (iii) successfully completed a Craft Apprenticeship in mechanical engineering or equivalent field with two years' relevant experience as a skilled worker in mechanical engineering or equivalent field; or (iv) completed a recognised Technician Apprenticeship in mechanical engineering or equivalent field [see Note (1)]; (b) attained a level of proficiency in Chinese and English Languages equivalent to Form 3 standard [see Note (1)]; and (c) a pass result in Basic Law Test (BLT) [see Note (2),(3)].

Note :(1) All qualifications/experience required should be obtained on or before the closing date for application. Qualifications/experience obtained after the application deadline will not be considered. (2) All applicants for civil service jobs will be assessed on their Basic Law knowledge. A pass result in the Basic Law Test is an entry requirement for civil service jobs requiring non-degree / non-professional qualifications at or above completion of secondary education level. Only those candidates who have passed the Basic Law Test will be considered for appointment. Attaining a score at or above 53 out of the full mark of 100 (i.e. getting at least 8 out of 15 questions correct) will be deemed to have a pass result in the Basic Law Test. The Basic Law Test result will also constitute an appropriate weighting in a candidate's overall assessment. (3) For candidates who have not taken the Basic Law Test or have not attained a pass result in the Basic Law Test at the time of applications, they may still apply for the job and arrangements will be made for them to take the Basic Law Test during the recruitment process.
