Skills Test
Invest one day. Prove your craft. Earn your contract.
Entry into Reynard begins with a practical Skills Test at the Reynard Academy. You complete a realistic high-voltage termination in a professional environment, assessed by the people who work to the same standard on projects every day.
There is no lengthy recruitment cycle. Your work speaks for itself. Reynard covers your travel costs; you bring your craft.
A test that reflects the work
The Skills Test mirrors the conditions of an actual project. You work on a realistic termination set-up at the Academy, with the tools, preparation and quality expectations the work demands.
We assess how you work, not just the final result. That gives both you and Reynard a clear, fair view of readiness.

What we look for
Four things make the difference between a completed task and work that is ready for Reynard projects.
Craftsmanship
Preparation, tool handling and finishing. Clean execution in the right sequence, with the right tools.
Attitude
Ownership of your scope, composure under pressure and the confidence to stop and ask when something is not right.
Safety mindset
Anticipating risk before it becomes risk: personal protection, work-area discipline and team awareness.
Verification
You measure, test and record your work. If it cannot be checked, it is not finished.
A day built around real work
The test takes place in a realistic high-voltage termination environment at the Reynard Academy. The task, tools and working method are designed to show how you prepare, execute and verify a connection.
The standard is clear
The test is structured and fair. You receive a defined scope, the right materials and time to demonstrate your method. Reynard assesses the quality of the work and the way you approach it.
Three possible outcomes
- Not yet at the Reynard level.
- Additional training through the Reynard Academy.
- A permanent contract and direct deployment.
