JPMorgan Chase made me spend a whole 30 minutes playing literal games. It was obviously a legal proxy for testing IQ since it was mostly puzzles but some of them were strictly testing physical traits like reaction time
And one of them was just asking me to press the spacebar as many times as possible in 60 seconds
My theory is men are probably better at the physical tests so that was to legally filter out women? Idk
Depends, if theyre just counting its trivial to write a script that mashes the key at whatever rate you want. If its got anything to track the time between presses it gets more annoying
Maybe JPMorgan Chase are a front for aliens conducting Last Starfighter style tests for human pilots to fight in their losing war using the guise of a game-like employment test.
Yeah that makes sense- it would be weird if the threshold was like "wow we got a pro gamer here" and is more likely about people who get fatigued toward the end or lack some kind of physical coordination.
I mean, you could filter out so much stuff with this. All kinds of nerve issues, repetitive motion injuries. Either way, unlimited to the HR department.

It can't be that hard to fake this with software right?

Holy shit that sounds extremely illegal
I just realized it's probably not filtering out women but moreso disabled and old people
But it's probably a legal loophole. I can't see what law it'd break and they probably consulted their army of lawyers

HR people can be pretty dumb this makes sense if you consider it a result of bureacratic bullshit
