I don't know about all of the "tests" you listed, I've only run into the debunked and discredited MBTI. I refuse, and if pressed I suggest the MBTI may violate the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act). That has always ended the discussion. By mentioning the ADA I have put the recruiter or HR "coach" into a sticky position, because if they insist I take the test to proceed I may have grounds to sue for discrimination.
In general the ADA requires that personality and intelligence tests have some scientific basis, have some relationship to the job, and get administered professionally and fairly. Since the MBTI administered by some freelance "career coach" won't pass those criteria I've never had to do it.
I do offer my zodiac sign, since it has as much scientific basis and predictive value as the MBTI. Amazing that companies continue to waste time and money on this nonsense.
