The problem is that the most common "personality test", the "Myers-Briggs" has nothing to do with "personality", let alone "toxic personality", so an argument about "personality" is not an argument for that particular personality test. This is a bait-and-switch dishonest argument - the gap between them is exactly the problem.
This is because the "Myers-Briggs" is hogwash, with as much predictive power of personality as astrology. i.e. none.
If the people administering them are using them for the intended purpose, they're rejecting candidates on nothing more than a roll of the dice. If not, then as others suggest, they are covert way of "screening for neurodivergent people""
So: This _personality test_ can fuck right off.
I doubt that any other quick multiple choice questionnaires are much better. If anyone wants to claim that they're worth anything, show the proof please.
