I know that McKinsey state there is a set benchmark score, and people believe this is around 70%...However...
Is there likely some type of flexibility around the score? Of course McKinsey would never admit this but would smaller offices, different teams (implementation/digital etc) have their own scores? If there is only 3 candidates sitting the PST and one achieves 60% and the others achieve 30%, Would HR have the discretion to progress the candidate with only 60% through to interviews (assuming they like their CV etc). Surely for a company who prides themselves on efficiency etc, they would find it much easier to be flexible to save time and resources in the process.
Just a shower thought...
Thanks
