I have taken an IQ test twice, and both times I scored a 137. Now I say in the title that I'm modest about that, and I mean it, because I really am annoyed that I didn't test higher.

You forget that you're dealing with a lot of insecure children here, in the Y generation (or "Y me"). Their parents (Gen X) taught a lot of them they are all little special snowflakes, and the kids don't understand why they can't get a job when they 1) have no experience and 2) have no special skills that are in need and 3) don't want to start at the bottom like normal people do.

When did knowing your IQ become part of the job interview process or more important than performance history and delivered metrics?

Psychometric testing, including ordinary IQ tests, is quite common practice in recruitment for management or executive type jobs.
