It counts! As previously stated from multiple people in hiring, it absolutely does count now. If you do very well on the interview and have nothing on your record they weigh it less, if your interview went well but you have a failure or two then the test is weighed more. Either way it's looked at so let's get that straight.

The next version of the aptitude test will measure the intensity of your reaction to distasteful images. As in the game of golf, lower scores are more desirable to management, as they will indicate your contentment with the $hitty hotels, even worse work rules and general treatment with lack of respect endured each and every day on the line.

I would love to get a hold of the data behind this one. The real data, not the "pass rate." Validation info, statistical power, what the distribution looks like, correlation with success, etc. I find it dubious.

Next up: Rorschach ink blot test. Does this look like a blue glove or a hotel key?
Hotel key???????

Can you share what field the PhD was in, and what University did he get it from?

Thanks,

Psychology/human factors. Sharing the university would allow someone to identify the pilot. Ph.D Candidates are listed on university websites and as there are not many of them they are easy to find. Myself included, so I know

It was not an online Ph.D. Brick and mortar in the southeast. Not Harvard but not University of Phoenix either. State school.
