Plumbers work in both residential and commercial buildings to construct and maintain plumbing systems. Additionally, they set up residential equipment and fittings for hygienic, cooling, and heating systems.

A plumber can be difficult to find since, in addition to having the necessary skills, they also need to be able to respect safety procedures, work effectively in a team, and have a positive approach toward solving problems.

Skill related questions

  • How do you balance while working with multiple customers at once?
  • What safety precautions do you employ when setting up or keeping up a plumbing system?
  • Do you have experience installing showers with several showerheads? In what way did you maintain high water pressure?
  • Tell us about one disadvantage of a traditional water heater. Could you recommend another option?
  • What equipment is necessary to unclog a sink?

Behavioral or situational questions 

  • What is the first consideration while designing a drainage system?
  • What procedures would you take if a consumer complained that their home lacked insufficient water pressure?
  • Describe a moment when you received project directions that were unclear. What exactly did you do?
  • Describe a situation in which you had to collaborate to finish a project. What did you do?
  • Indicate the variations among the chemical drain cleaners that consumers typically use.

General questions 

  • How much experience do you have with snaking obstructed pipes?
  • Tell me how you'd repair a leaking water line.
  • Do you have any expertise with office plumbing?
  • What do you believe is the most prevalent cause of sump pump failure?
  • Mention some of the health and safety concerns that plumbers confront.

Conclusion

The most likely candidate will have the skills necessary for the job and also be well-qualified. Anyone with undesirable social skills and an urge to start things too fast should be avoided.
