Answer to Question 1

False

Answer to Question 2

Candidates' scores on different assessment methods can be combined in two different ways. One way is to use a multiple hurdles approach whereby candidates must receive a passing score on an assessment before he/she is allowed to continue on in the selection process. Because the multiple hurdles approach is costly and takes more time, the approach is generally used when the cost of an employee's poor performance is highfor example, when the person has the potential to put people's safety at risk.

The second way is to use a compensatory approach whereby a candidate's high scores on some assessments can compensate for low scores on other assessments. The compensatory approach allows high scores on some assessments to compensate for low scores on other assessments. For example a company may allow a candidate's work experience to compensate for a low score on another part of the assessment.
