Does anyone have any familiarity with the usefulness of taking the BAT? (i.e. what it looks like to employers; do they even know/care what this is?)

Really? Maybe I'm biased since they are a sponsor of Wall Street Oasis but based on their stats they have already had over 40,000 take the test and made over 1,600 connections from employers to potential employees...not bad for a start-up.
At the very least, having it on your resume if you score in the 90+% can't hurt imo...
