Weighted Application Blanks

Question

What do you mean by Weighted Application Blanks?

Answer 1

Some organisations assign numeric values or weights to the responses provided by the applicants. This makes the application form more job related. Generally, the items that have a strong relationship to job performance are given higher scores. The total score of each applicant is then obtained by adding the weights of the individual article reactions. The subsequent scores are then used in the final selection.
