The HR screen was a bit off. I applied as a Python developer and was given a purely C memory-leak multiple-choice quiz. Sort of annoying, considering I told the recruiter explicitly that I don't know C.

EDIT: My broader qualm is this. If you've got hundreds of open req.s, but fail a candidate based on a quiz that you know the candidate doesn't know (but which aligns with one specific job posting), you're maybe doing hiring wrong.
