  In the absence of proper documentation and genuine feedback, assume it was a fake. E.g. I had a CodeSignal assessment recently that resulted in the end of my "consideration". If it had been a genuine opening, they'd be able to tell me what the expected score was and how tenured peers at the company are scoring in recent assessments.

    Most companies refuse to provide applicants any feedback other than yes/no, because it opens them up to lawsuits.

      Really? Guess they'd better make sure they aren't discriminating unfairly, conducting fake interviews, or doing other things that would get them nailed by a system that exists for good reason.

        Evidence that a test is a proxy for IQ means you’re gonna lose in court.

          No it doesn't. IQ tests, even explicit ones, are broadly legal in the US.
