Is it me or are they getting longer and more complex?

I work as a sought of IT tutor training teachers how to use specialist examination software. It is not a technical role it is purely for users who often have very little IT experience.

I recently got approach by a company asking me if I would consider training people on their custom software. I looked at the package which seemed very good and decided to go to the interview. The interview went great I showed them my portfolio of courses and deliverd a small presentation.

I got a call yesterday saying they would like to see me again and could I write and deliver a short course on driving a car??? Other than demonstrating my teaching style I can see no relevance. I have a proven portfolio which I have written and demonstrated already to them.

Anyway I have declined to take it any further I don't really know why but it bugged me. It felt more like an audition than an interview. Is it me or are employers going a bit OTT.
