After applying via an online job board, I got a call from a recruiter stating that he believed I'd be a great fit for this role. I was then directed to apply on their company website. I proceeded, and shortly after I received a confirmation for a phone screen. The phone screen went well, and the kind young man on the opposite line seemed impressed. Shortly after that, I got a confirmation for a HireVue interview. I prepared very well and thoroughly for this, and I successfully recorded it for this step. After THAT, I was promptly given a link for a Caliper assessment test. At this point, I've submitted my resume and cover letter THREE times for the same position. The test was unlike any other personality test I've ever encountered, however I didn't try to "cheat"; I answered honestly, and paid close attention to the questions that seemed to repeat themselves. Since I was going through the interview process so fluidly, I assumed I was passing and I'd be given a chance for an on-site interview. I received an email after the CALIPER assessment stating that they would not be considering me for the position. It was an incredibly inefficient, time-devouring, soul-crushing experience. If the caliper assessment was all Keyence cared about, it should have been conducted prior to everything else. The only good that came out of this is ultra-preparation for other roles in other companies, and the recruiters actually were very polite and friendly.
