I am so tired of bullshit employment personality quizzes

They’ll be like “which word is most like you and which is least like you? “Objective, kind, ambitious”. Like bro I don’t want to say any of those are least like me and they have nothing to do with each other like ???? I swear they just make you answer 100 of these stupid questions just to see if you’re willing to put up with bullshit to get the job

I love it when you ask those types of HR consultans, what the science is behind their method.
Last time someone told me they would send it to me... I'm still waiting.
You won't get the job though, most of them get really defensive about this stuff... they are just stuck in a bizar reality that makes them feel really important about themselves.

Well, it gets past all the interviewing lying that takes place... on both sides... and forces you into revealing your true intentions, motivations, and preferences. I personally prefer those instead of having to navigate a verbal interrogation of trickery.

@jackrabbit10 no, or at least not yet. Don’t think I’ve heard back
A lot of these seem straightforward but they are actually repeated throughout with different wording /scenarios to test how genuine the responses are

Just select the attribute you think is best for the job 🤭

@BritishFailedAesthetic I try, but sometimes it’s hard when they give you shitty options
No commies! You want a conservative work force.

@Zeuro since the fifties we've understood that these tests don't measure personality per se, but they screen out the left in politics really well.
That's why before 1990 or so it was known to be unethical to design the workforce to be more conservative and we didn't take these tests in ordinary job applications.
For about twenty years, everyone was red screened.
