• Candidates are assessed on multiple criteria, and each criterion has a minimum cut-off score. Candidates who fail to meet the cut-off score for any criterion are excluded from consideration

  Multiple Cut-Off Approach – Fail One, Fail All
• A multi-stage selection process where candidates must successfully pass each stage before advancing to the next. Each stage serves as a hurdle; only candidates who clear all hurdles proceed to the next stage.

  Multiple Hurdle Approach
• Involves grouping candidates who score within a certain range of scores into bands. Candidates within the same band are considered equally qualified, reducing emphasis on minor score differences.
