The story is mostly irrelevent. Now, in order to get certain jobs we must pee in cups, have thorough background investigations & be subject to whatever hair climbs up someones ass. Are we to ascertain that in the near future we are to have psychological tests too? Whatever happened to qualifcations through trial & error?

Damn it. If psych tests are required, i'll never get a job anywhere. :mope:
 
Re: A look into our furure?

not to forget the main reason they are going through all this is to remove any possibility that they can be accused of choosing him because his daddy is rupert murdoch. ;)
 
The State of MO is finally doing full background checks on any new hires. Basically checks criminal records, and any other public info.
 
Psychometric testing, 90% of the time refers to IQ tests and that sort of thing. It may well be a CEO-tailored IQ test but it's not anything like "look at this ink-blot and tell me what you see"...

Oh. If it's just plain IQ tests, then i'm fine. I usually score around 155... On the other hand, if i get a test for mental illnesses, i'm screwed.
