If you speak of the written test, it is separate from the interview.
Upon receiving the invitation for the written test you must pass the test. It takes a week or two to find out you passed. After you receive notice you passed, application is sent for a back ground check. Should you make it though the back ground check you name is thrown into a pool of potential hires.
Only when they look to hire they will start interviewing. When I took my written test the recruiter said it could be 6 months or two years before you are called, if you are called. Once you get an invitation for an interview, you will be scheduled for a PAT (Physical Ability Test) at the same time. Should you successfully make it though those, then you get a call for a medical exam.
All of the tests are easy, the most important thing is follow directions in your correspondence. Example, if you are told to report at NWP for the written test @ 11:00 with two #2 pencils. Be there @ 10:45 with 3 pencils. Also make sure the application is complete! There are a lot of information asked for. Neatness counts.
Good luck!
