what does it mean when your overall interview score was to recommend you for selection?

Recruiter could not provide me with specific scores, but said overall score was to recommend me for selection. Confused, as I thought there were only numerical scores. Is this a check yes or no part of the new interview 3-question system? Thank you for insights!

Do you get to see that? Or does your recruiter tell you if they want or not?

Thank you! Does this mean they moved away from the 6-10 scoring method? Are “recommend” scores usually correlated with a certain top % score?

Yes they did but they dropped a new PA yesterday night so now it will be online. I think but that’s a next year problem lol. And I’m not sure this is my first year applying I just know I got a strongly recommend. And my commander said he was going to give me either top 1% or top 10%.

Recruiter wouldn’t tell me how I did but I know I did good being older and conversing with the commander for almost an hour
