That’s a really weird test in the linked article.

When done right though, this can be quite helpful. As a hiring manager I had very good experience with a test that tried to identify behavioural patterns.

At that company, we used it to have a discussion with the candidates, not as a hiring criterion —- moderated by an experienced HR colleague who was trained in how to interpret the results.

Gave much more insightful discussions than the usual “describe a conflict” type of questions.
