I think it was probably "Clasp you hand behind your head" and if your elbows touch the wall 1st you didn't get the job.  ;)

John, our wall test was not as severe as the yours with elbows.  They just had to walk into the wall and if the nose hit the wall first then the applicant was rejected.   Seriously, the women engineers I worked with knew their stuff.
