Wow, that's.. disgusting. And also damaging to their own hiring practices, by the sound of it.
When I was younger I applied for a lot of jobs like that (supermarket, bookstore, data entry) and dealt with automated quizzes like that. None were quite that blatant, but even in my late teens I understood a lot of the questions were about risk assessment.
So it stands to reason that a huge concern with this was keeping insurance premiums down.
Either way it is still a "Real" tech job, just for an asshole company
