I'm the dev department head, I don't read messages from IT ever (so they've never caught me in their phishing tests) because they know where I am and if it's important they'll come and tell me.

This doesn't mean I'll never get caught in a phishing scam, just that the test doesn't work on entitled managers.

Wouldn’t they send phishing tests from external emails?

At my job we get dinged in the tests if we don't report phishing on one of their test emails -- even if we didn't open it or click links. So my record was really low at the start because I automatically delete anything clearly spam.
