So how do I improve in this shit ? Do I just solve those tests at home until I get better ?

What kind of job was this
>>53394148
>concentration & focus skills
What is it?
>>53394160
Technical advisor/assistant for some big (undisclosed) project.
Basically my duties would be to analyze the project, test it, write technical documentation, find out ways to improve, deal with customer care.
>>53394181
The first test in the series was like my OP pic but much harder. Second one was to circle words with same or opposite meaning etc.
>>53394233
What kind of job is it? It looks like the job of machine, not humans. You should be glad to not be hired. You're not a robot.
>>53394195
So basically a nigger for the dev team.
>>53394195
they probably plan for 100% of peoples time to project work and basically expect unpaid overtime
>you dodged a bullet there anon
>>53394148
apply for another job w/o this bullshit
>>53394259
Pretty much yeah.
>>53394260
I sure hope so.

I've been out of the job market for a whole year. This was actually the first interview I was called to and I didn't realize they do stuff like this on regular interviews. Seems to be quite popular these days.
Nobody of you had to deal with that while being tested for a position ?
>>53394148
ayy
>>53394148
No, you stop applying to shit places.
>>53394148
>That test
For tests as stupid as these there actual scientific proof that amphetamine and coffee work.
See

>>53394148
Sounds like hell on earth but it probably pays well for the tedium
>>53394653
but coffe does work anon-kun
I applied for a job and just showed them my github and talked some tech jargon and got hired.
