A different option would be to use a score profile approach with absolute cut scores. Current successful job incumbents scored $65$ or higher on the Employment Inventory and $385$ or higher on the Basic Skills Test. Which four applicants would be hired if this profile is used? Alternatively, the company could use a multiple$-$hurdle approach. The multiple$-$hurdle approach and the score profile approach will produce the same hires when the same cut scores are applied. However, the multiple$-$hurdle approach is more efficient since a portion of the pool is screened out after the first hurdle. If the company requires the applicants to pass the Basic Skills Test first, by how many applicants will the pool be reduced after the first hurdle?
