Had a PHP test for a job application yesterday. The test contains nearly 20 questions, most are 2 points. I had to write the answer into a word file and cannot use search engine. I thought I did okay because most of the questions were asking like 'what is php', 'what is isset', etc. which I could answer all of them and pretty confident that I answered correctly but the recruiter contacted back today that I failed...:(

It's my first time applying for a programing job after been working in the field for almost 3 years. Feel so bad.. Feel so unqualified 😥😥

Programming skill
And interview passing skill
Are two totally not related, entirely different skills not connected in any way

Did the say if you failed the test or the interview?

Or was it that you was saved from a moron company?

Sure a test can be a good thing but the way you describe it it sounds very strange, more like a school test than a recruitment test.

@Voxera They said I failed the test and yes I found the test strange as well, it indeed exactly like a school test that you fill out the given blank lines with your answers.

You wanna look into the version history of that word document. It's probably been kicking around for years.
