Shortlisting overview
Shortlisting by Recruit helps you decide between the ongoing applicants for a vacancy.
To see a ranked list of ongoing applications, go to the Vacancy Details page and select the Shortlist sub-tab:
The shortlist shows a summary of all assessments made so far, with the assessment scores presented in a scorecard style. The applications are ranked as follows:
- Applications that have been through most selection stages are placed higher in the list. This groups applications by putting together those that are at the same stage in the selection process, making it easier for you to choose between them.
- Within each stage applications are sorted by the degree to which they meet all the required selection criteria. Applicants that do not meet all selection criteria are listed at the bottom.
- Applicants who meet all required criteria are sorted by total weighted score. Higher weighted scores mean better ratings by your assessors. Scoring gives details of how scores are calculated.
The shortlist ranking is only an indicator of the best candidates. You must look at the underlying information to make your decision.
