I found this interesting:
"We see absolutely no evidence of any significant cheating taking place in the use of our assessments or that the cheating is substantially affecting the validity of the assessments," says David Scarborough, who helped develop the test and works for its owner, Kronos Inc.
Of course, that's what he would say, but what if he's telling the truth? If anyone stands to gain from research into what tests correlate well with job success, it's these guys.
It's entirely possible that the test still measures qualities correlated with job success, even when the applicants cheat to pass it. It's also possible that having any prescreening test -- even a totally irrelevant one -- improves the quality of employees.
