Room 101 #3 - Psychometric Testing

We've all done them.

You walk into an interview expecting to be asked questions pertaining to the job you actually applied for, and instead you get frog-marched into a side room with an HR monkey and told to spend 3/4 hour filling in a questionairre.

You are then left to stew, to think about why they've asked the same question 7 or 8 times in slightly different tones. Following this is a meeting with the HR organ grinder who then, quite smugly, reveals your personality like some Goose Fair fortune teller.

Instead, try asking the right questions. If you want to know what my personality is, just f***ing ask!

Example, from my brother-in-law's mySpace page. I took the quiz, and was told something I already knew by someone I'd never met.

You scored as Too Far Gone - All American Rejects. You are "Too Far Gone" by The All-American Rejects. You don't worry how a relationship will work out in the end- You live in the moment, enjoying all the time you have with the ones you love. You are probably fairly close to your family.
