### POET Testing

POET is the post-offer/pre-hire physical abilities examination that tests the employment candidate’s ability to perform the physical aspects defined by the functional job description. The job is contingent on passing POET and takes approximately 30 minutes to perform. Testing may include items such as:

- Lifting and carrying
- Pushing, pulling, and gripping
- Bending and reaching
- Climbing, walking and balancing
