Taking personality assessment for promotion?

Okay so I've taken the MBTI before and don't remember what I got but we were all recently encouraged to apply for a new position that came open in my company and would be a promotion but they also said as part of the application process for it we would have to take it... 

Is it just me or is that kind of absurd? They know all of us we've been here with the company for over 3 years so why would we have to do this? I kind of think just saying that was a test to see who would be willing to do it...but i don't know, what if they're serious? Has anyone else had to do something like this for a promotion?

This could explain the company's interest in MBTI results.

Now that you mention it, yeah, that sounds reasonable.
