Re: More Employers Are Asking Job Seekers for SAT Scores

I do not believe that, by the time one has graduated college and is applying
for a job that the SAT, if it were ever valid for any prognosticating, is at
all valid for job approval.   People change while in college, most for the
better, and their SAT scores may remain an embarrassment.  Or, to the
contrary, the SAT scores may be very high but the applicant has not lived up
to expectations.  Having worked in the corporate world for over 15 years, I
can guarantee you that there are far far more important criteria to consider
than SAT scores.
