Re: Psychological testing

Absolutely. Attempts to root out things like marriage and religion in the form of "psychological tests" is a "nice try, but you're busted" kind of illegal practice.

Take as much information as you can, including a copy of your employment file, to the EEOC/civil rights and file a complaint pronto.

Follow their process through to litigation, if necessary.
