What is short-listing?
Short-listing means developing a short list of applicants to be interviewed, based on how well their written applications meet the Selection Criteria or on how well they have performed in other selection tasks such as telephone interviews. Written applications are read by panel members and given a rating against the Selection Criteria as well as an overall rated score. From this, a short-list of applicants is compiled. If you are on this list, it means that you scored highly enough to be interviewed.
