I had to take a 90 minute proctored exam only.for them to tell me the client didn't think I had enough experience with a technology I had experience in. Screw you, Intellibus.
Oh, this reminds me of the company I'm working for right now.
"You want this promotion? Great! You're qualified and we'll have you do this project first to see if you like this work."
"Really? I have almost no experience with this programming language, but okay!"
Does project
"Actually, you're not qualified enough. Sorry!"
A week later one of the devs on that team apologized for the situation (not that it was their fault at all.) But still, what BS that all was.
I once had to do a take home product design assignment on a real feature for free only to be rejected due to not having enough relevant experience.
Fuck that company, I hope they go under.
