After reading the title, I was very curious to see what the documentary would bring to me. Since I've discovered personality tests, I've only heard enthusiasts on the theme and I confess I was a little bit skeptic about how reductionist it is on the human nature complexity. And then I watch it...
Subjective, too emotional appealing, lack of more credential or credibility from who is making the case, but mainly, it fails to answer the questions it should.
After watch it until the end I was ready to disagree from the use of personality tests because: 1. Big corporations are using in a large scale, so it must be evil.
2. The lady who invented also wrote a racist novel, so we should throw everything she wrote away.
3. Some people are not getting jobs (but it doesn't answer if the same people would get jobs if the personality tests did not exist, and they were doing only regular interviews).
4. The people who invented and studied about the personality tests are white, so it has biases. (that could be a solid statement, but it lacks data! Do the test with 100 people, how much of the white "pass" on it? How much of the minorities?)
Basically a waste of time.
