Personally I thought that the other side of the coin was more plausible - that the results would find their way into the hands of workfare providers who can then apply pressure to those people who tested as shy or vulnerable or nervous types. I am all of those things, but I can also discipline myself to be defiant, simply because I've made myself aware of their game.J McEvoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04041757652557198819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-361723372487076700.post-15263774068495000662014-04-29T09:23:39.514+01:002014-04-29T09:23:39.514+01:00This is just sinister.

That online test from a year ago was a farce: all possible permuations of response led to the same 'diagnosis', and for what? Presumably so they can simply tell you that you're fit for work.

I had to do a Jobs Seminar a few weeks ago, organised by the local benefits office, during which I had to complete the Myers-Briggs personality test. I've done this test before under other circumstances (I'm always INFP) but I found it very worrying that the DWP now have a psychological test which has been endorsed by them - because they have tried it on claimants. I tried to pin this down, but they were clever about it. The guy who conducted the test was a consultant they'd brought in, and who worked for one of these parasite agencies which make their money from human misery and unemployment. He does the test and simply passes the result onto the DWP, and they pass the result onto me. But I wonder just how the result will affect their attitude towards me and my employment prospects, if any.<br /><br />Anyway, good luck with your results.J McEvoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04041757652557198819noreply@blogger.com
