When HR is completely clueless.
I applied for a design/WordPress position last month. The test questions were something like 5 C#, 5 Java, 2 Python, 1 JS.
The job description was all DESIGN, SEO, Web dev, etc and then the test was mid-level CS stuff in languages the company does not use.
No PHP questions! 🤦♂️ (or even HTML, CSS, or WP!).
I don't expect HR to be able to debug my code, but that was ridiculous and it is not uncommon.
