I actually doubt that. I suspect that the tests may reflect what some HR or consultant type thinks the company culture SHOULD be, not what it really is. They may be trying to stack the personality deck in order to mold their future pilot group. Probably well intentioned (ie looking for safety-conscious team players) but possibly Machiavellian... looking for folks who are just happy to get paid to fly and will roll over for the company.
