Julius,

They start at #1 then they go to #2 then #3and so on. Counting is a basic tool that will be required in this trade, unfortunately you seem to be oblivious to the concept of it. You are not a probationary apprentice, you are number on the hiring list. If you get hired you become a probie. There is no control issue with this. You interviewed your score was ranked against the others and you were ranked 329 or lower than 328 guys. The interview scoring is based off 100 points. If you were serious about this trade and researched through these threads you would have found out the scoring of the interview.
