For many job openings, the recruiter or hiring manager receives too many applicants to easily sort through. A questionnaire is one way to automate the process so that unqualified applicants can be quickly weeded out.

Dear Colleagues,
Questionnaires are effective for screening out applicants. As we know, things are evolving and changing rapidly around the world, and HRM cannot be left out. Another angle to screening is the online log-on innovation, where you automatically receive an acknowledgment, and subsequently, if shortlisted, such applicants are contacted electronically. This helps reduce the volume of paperwork and, of course, courier/postage, because of this technology available—it is swift and almost paper-free. In some cases, exams are done on the web and submitted, while the company then decides through automation who gets employed or otherwise. It is a nice innovation; however, in HRM, the human angle can never be eroded. Every recruitment process should ideally end with a chat, one-on-one.
Thanks for now.
