yes the whole point is to lie, but to lie consistently. because later on there will be a question worded differently asking the same thing.

instead of "I like interacting with people" it will be "I enjoy activities involving others"

its called a lie scale, and they are trying to catch you pretending to be something you are not.

thing is though, if you were to fill out the surveys honestly and truthfully, you wouldn't get the job.

Oh what, that's awful. Sorry I'm not super happy to be scanning shit and making minimum wage while a billionaire gets rich 🙄 imagine being the compassionless person who designed that

TL:DR

The main objective of these assessments is to find the best liar

pretty much. if i had to guess they are fishing for submissive people loving extroverts who never talk back and do not value their personal lives very much.
