Job applicant says this 'nonsensical' personality quiz she was given is the 'weirdest ever'

How are you supposed to answer this?

A woman was left at a loss for words after being asked to complete the weirdest personality quiz while applying for a job at a grocery store.

TikToker @ggingervitis says that she was told she would just have to complete the test before she could be offered the job – but that was easier said than done.

"It's a personality assessment and they were like, 'Just go with your gut, first thing that comes to mind,'" she explained.

Pointing her phone camera at the computer screen, she took her followers through the bizarre quiz.

The first slide from the personality test was a simple stock photo of a woman looking at cupcakes with the caption 'Resist Temptation' and the options to click 'Me' or 'Not Me'.

How are you supposed to answer that one?

"First of all, I have a huge f**king problem with this: 'Resist temptation,'" the TikToker began.

As if that weren't confusing enough, the next slide she showed viewers was even more of a mind-f**k.

Accompanying a stock photo of a soup kitchen was the title 'Soup Kitchen'. Nothing else. No further explanation. Not even a question. Just 'Soup Kitchen' and the options 'Me' or 'Not Me'.

"What does that mean? Am I... do I... Are they asking do I volunteer at soup kitchens? Am I a soup kitchen? Do I participate in soup kitchens? What are they asking? It's not even a question," she said.

"Soup kitchen? Me? Not me?"

And finally, the last image was of an octopus tentacle served up on a plate with roasted vegetables, alongside the title 'New Experiences'.

Just as confused as before, she told her viewers: "I'm down for new experiences, but I won't eat octopus. What the f**k?"

Thankfully, she didn't take viewers through all 50 unanswerable questions, because this would really melt your brain.

People in the comments section were just as baffled as this TikToker was, and the only advice they could give her was to avoid this company at all costs.

"Did they send you a Buzzfeed quiz??" asked one viewer.

"If that job is not 75k a year or higher my application stopped when the assessment showed up," joked a second.

"I like these tests, it's like a series of less and less subtle red flags, telling me not to work there," agreed a third.

"Those... aren't questions? How are you supposed to know what answer they want?" wondered a fourth.

And a fifth TikToker suggested that the questions were confusing on purpose.

"I'm convinced the answers don't matter," they said. "They make them ridiculous to see who powers through."

That's the only explanation that makes sense to me.

The only lesson that can be taken from this is: if a company asks you to complete one of these assessments, run.
