I was just wondering if anyone here has taken a Perl screening test
that's part of some human resources software called Proveit? I'm
looking at a project that is being staffed by a recruiting agency and
their client apparently was interested in me, but wanted me to take
this test first.

Anyway, I took it this morning and did pretty well. All multiple
guess and ranging from incredibly easy to some hard stuff that really
sucked. It wasn't as inane as I anticipated and may even be a sort of
viable testing mechanism altho they are fascinated with the use of
file test switches and also included a few things that I thought were
deprecated.

So has anyone here run into this or a similar screening program? I
thought that these things were limited to word processing and the
like, but would imagine that they'll become prevalent as Perl use
increases.
