Near-miss codes

The Electronics Engineers group (2334) holds a single unit group occupation, so the main near-miss risk comes from neighbouring engineering groups rather than sibling codes inside 2334. The work you actually did determines the right code. If your background sits across electronics, electrical, or telecommunications, compare the ABS task descriptions for each before nominating.
