How did everyone do in the Ropes Thrive assessment? - I completely flopped it. I wonder how much they take the results into consideration
I could be wrong but the way I think about it is that if you had an amazing interview with brilliant commercial awareness etc but scored lower on the assessment, it would be silly of them to not give an offer based on that.

Alternatively, if you did amazingly on the test but did not do strongly on the other parts of the AC, it feels nonsensical for them to give an offer based on a good test score. I think the test is probably used when deciding between two strong candidates or so.
