What should the assessment standards (i.e., minimum raw scores required) be for assessments used to hire or promote people in our organization?
Assessment standards should be determined by management and should be based on organizational issues and needs. If standards are set too high, it is difficult to fill positions in a timely manner. If standards are set too low, however, there is a greater probability of hiring individuals who do not have the competencies needed to perform the job. As a general rule, the standard for any given assessment should be established so that approximately 70% to 85% of applicants are able to meet it.
