I applied to an Amazon warehouse job about 6 years ago. The prescreen test they gave was essentially designed to weed out anyone with the slightest urge to unionize. That much was clear to me, so I answered it as if I were the most obedient, mindless, self-loathing, order-taking, incompetent snitch of a person in the world, that was completely oblivious to how bad I was about to get screwed. Got the job! I really just wanted to see what it was like in there because I needed a break from computer work. My god what an awful company culture.

The worst part is the deal-breaker might be something like "has 'Figma' in their resume"... Until recently I wasn't listing all the tools I know how to use because I know how to use them all and Figma is the standard for design. To me this would be like a Senior Software Engineer writing "proficient in vs code" or something. Like obviously if the guy has been employed for 15 years he fucking knows how to use an IDE.
Anyway, I started keyword stuffing my resume like I was making a website in 2001 and started getting more responses.

7:12 these âaptitudeâ tests always read like this to me:
âHow far are you willing to bend over for me?â
âDo you mind me yelling in your face and degrading you publicly around your co workers?â
âDo you mind if I cross boundaries and exploit you?â
âDo you mind if I overwork you and gaslight you for wanting to get paid when I was generous to give you an opportunity to blow me?â
Usually at the end they have a section where you can give comments where it states âanonymousâ and âdoesnât affect employmentâ. I take the opportunity to tell them to F themselves. I wasnât born yesterday. Calling them sadistic f*****. You canât comment anonymously when they have all my information at the start of the test.

I'm looking for a job, responding to ads leads me to linkedin skill tests. It's so infantilizing, incredibly annoying, and disrespectful of my time. The best part is that one job was paying (supposedly) 75k and the test was reminiscent of what I would do in elementary school - reading comprehension and similar tests. Absolutely ridiculous.

"Why did you do that, it harmed your coworker?!"
"I followed the established procedure to the letter."
"Well, we do not just blindly follow the rules."
"Last time I did not follow the established procedure you got upset at me."
"We need you to be nuanced and know when it is not okay to follow the rules and when it is."
"Okay, please write a procedure for that."

Josh forgot to mention that they implemented Chatgpt into indeed, resulting in autogenerated job descriptions you can just click next on if you have no idea what to put in there. As a result it will start listing non relevlent skills in both the description and the requirements section. Skills that should boost the pay drastically. non informed HR is bad enough without chatgpt making mistakes.

I had an interview once and CFO kept asking similar"What if" scenarios, they are mortified when my answers were prefaced with "depends on the situation". They repeatedly asked "what's your strategy to handle this situation", yet was like they'd read these questions are was waiting for the correct response.
