Manual screening is the process where a recruiter or HR professional manually reviews applications, resumes, and other candidate information to determine if someone is suitable for a role. This is done without automated systems.
1. Review resumes and cover letters:
The recruiter examines documents to assess skills, experience, and qualifications.
2. Evaluate suitability:
Compare the information in the resume with the job requirements, such as education, work experience, and specific skills.
3. Make a selection:
Candidates who meet the criteria are invited to proceed to the next step, such as an interview.
