I interviewed with TB a couple of years ago. Didn't do too great in the technical interview. Is that about to be public?

Same here. It's annoying that a technical aptitude test that I took when I was a freshman in college might now be publicly viewable as a benchmark for my skills.

And I know the e-mail says that results will only be shared if you did well. But, if you have a profile on TribleByte and there's no signal on your profile that you did well, the only logical conclusion is that you did not do well.

I'll be deleting my account, anyways. I didn't ask for this.

Similarly, I took a test in a language I’m not very familiar with to understand the process. I’m not terribly embarrassed, but I don’t want that publicly available.

See I did fantastic in the interview, but the interviewer was a noob :/

Edit: To be fair in their survey i think i said something like this sounded good, but it was phrased as "be part of an exclusive club of competent engineers" rather than "show current employer you're interviewing because you clicked on a banner add. And my whiteboard code had a bug.
