I know it’s a jokey example but it has insight.
First, it’s probably illegal in the USA due to ADA unless you could show that it tested something physically related to the job. Example: a big company is required to make accommodation for a, say, qualified analyst who is blind, but can reject a blind candidate for a job that required driving.
But after 45+ years of hiring programmers, the world hasn’t yet figured out which factors are germaine and which are not.
