Just fly the airplane to 2,000 ft. as the go around requires. It is not rocket science. LAX for example won't let you exceed 2,000 feet until over the ocean because of the VFR corridor. Getting checked out as FO in the B767 had a checkairman so screwed up I made him reduce to idle and descend back to 2,000 ft because he had busted the 2,000 ft altitude and was exceeding 300 knots at 2300 ft.

Smetimes line pilots can fly a lot better than check airmen. This wasn't the only time, it happened multiple times. We do it every sequence, the check pilots with no more experience than us but don't fly much sometimes get caught in a corner .
