I think it is great what you did. But, I suspect these tests are a way of weeding people out because for years there have just been too many applicants and no way to weed them. At one point I was a member of a hiring committee. We had 20 completely qualified candidates. After interviews... we had 17 qualified candidates. There was just no real way to pick. So we started eliminating by silly arbitrary things... such as where they lived or what school they went to (when that really had no bearing).

This would make me angry too but the real rub the thing we all need to fight, is that these corporations have too many candidates. Why is that? Well not sure but I suspect there is a link with visas and some immigration. Make sure these policies are stopped and the job market might return to what it should be.

I am hopeful that things are changing. From 2008 until now at my workplace no one quit. In the span of 3 moths we have had 3 people quit. (for better jobs)
