I'm filling out a Data Entry job application and CRT wpm was on the application. Not sure what that is!

Welcome to the world if Information Technology. You are going to see more TLA's (three letter acronyms) than you can shake a stick at. Most of them are unique but every once in a while you will bump into one that might have a couple of different meanings. The two that you mention only have one meaning each, as far as I know. A CRT is a Cathode Ray Tube. Which describes what was used in those old monitors before the Flat Panels came along. The WPM is used to describe how fast one can type and stands for Words Per Minute.
Hope this helps,

Just for your information CRT stands for Cathode Ray Tube. It's the type of monitor on your computer if you're NOT using a flat screen. Your tv uses a CRT also...if again, it is not a new flat screen.

I think it is office environment vernacular for Cathode Ray Tube Words Per Minute or how fast can you type while on a computer.

They want to know how fast you can type on a computer keyboard in words-per-minute.
