Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Banding is the method in which applicants who score within a certain score range are considered to have scored equivalently. Therefore, option D is the correct answer. Option A (top-down) refers to a management approach and does not relate to scoring applicants. Option B (criterion-related) is a method in which an applicant's score is compared to a predetermined standard or benchmark. Option C (minimum competency) is a method in which an applicant's score is compared to the minimum level of knowledge or skill required to perform a particular job.
