Wow, that's.. disgusting. And also damaging to their own hiring practices, by the sound of it.

  Possibly illegal, but the mention of being younger makes me think this is less for a "real" tech job and more for a "normal" job or a code monkey position where you really just need semi-competent people who can fill seats and do a modicum of work. 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.

    They were pretty much all code monkey jobs, it would have been my third proper coding job and they were a software house so it was your average Java code shop. Either way it is still a "Real" tech job, just for an asshole company
