Is it plausible that a company would have an "implant" pilot show up for an interview as a test of an applicants personality?
Scenario: Four guys show up for an interview, they meet in the lobby, everyone shakes hands and introduces themselves. Minutes later a female applicant shows up. She walks in and goes straight to the opposite side of the room. Two of the male applicants get up and go over and introduce themselves, the other two males applicants donot. The human resource lady is running late, we were told "she will be right with you". So, there is plenty of time to chit chat. After a thirty question ATP (derived) test, the two male applicants that did not introduce themselves to the female applicant are sent home. Reason: They failed the written test. (Without being shown the results)
Fact is stranger than fiction. The female applicant and the HR lady had the same first name and the HR lady never showed. When the male applicants are released, the DOT finishes by saying "Oh, let me introduce myself..." at the very end.
Would a company go to this great length to test personality or do I need to consider getting my straight jacket dry cleaned?
