6 ways to eliminate unqualified candidates in recruitment/selection

4. Candidates with no particular achievement

You need to know which jobs the candidate has done before and his/her achievement in that job. Remember that outstanding success in the past is the promotion to the success in the future.

5. Don’t be bluffed by Technical terms

Many candidates think they may bluff the employer by many buzzwords. If in a CV, the applicant has listed many technical terms, you shall need an expert to evaluate that CV but not let the candidate play “solo”.

6. List of important skills to be required for the recruitment

For example, if you require a Bachelor Degree at the beginning of the list, you will only need to pay attention to such candidates having such Degree and ignore the others. Don’t waste your time reading an Application file that is not suitable to the basic requirements.
