My first job at a consulting company out of uni I had to to an IQ test that could also indicate if I had rabies.

It had questions like "are you afraid of water", "have you showered in the last three weeks", "have you felt more aggressive lately"...

I've had to take the MMPI [1] for an employer before. About 500 true/false questions to screen for mental health disorders. Some of the questions seem quite outlandish but taken as a whole make sense.

It also assumes that one knows that rabies can cause hydrophobia:
