I got an interview with a big welding company on monday, I will hopefully be getting an entry level welding position. The test is mig and flux core plate, i was just wondering if anyone could give me some pointers for setting up my machine ie: amps, volts, I havnt done a plate test in mig or flux core in about 2 years and would appreciate any advice greatly. Thankds in advance for any help that you could offer.

Ask if They have the metal that your testing on to practice first.

i agree...just ask for a practice shot, different welders use different settings

This might help. When I bought my tig welder it came with a slide chart that gave you a good idea on how to set up your machine with the different metal. I count find it on line but I found this.
