I don't know what one you took, but the one I was told to take (and vociferously declined) was somebody's unscientific hack of the MMBI. You know, the test that tests for mental illness. No one's business. Sorry, you don't get to know how many friends I have (a question), if I have nagging doubts (a question), and so on. It doesn't matter if those are problem spots for me or not, it is the principle.
Also, that HR person is not a trained doctor. They have no business administering any kind of test of this type, and certainly have no business trying to interpret the results. It is just woo nonsense. Might as well try to do handwriting analysis, or read my tea leaves.
You are not allowed (in the states) to ask interview questions about health. Yet, somehow, the courts have found these 'personality' tests legal. I don't understand, but I will not participate. I don't take drugs, but I won't take a pee test either.*
* these results might vary depending on how close I am to foreclosure and how low my saving are. Principles are costly.
