Shortlisting candidates on the basis of their marks is a conventional form of talent sourcing that recruiters follow. Even though the scores of a candidate are an important determining factor, selecting or rejecting a candidate on the basis of his academic prowess alone can be rather impulsive (and shortsighted) decision.

Also, the chance of missing out on top performers or overlooking other much better candidates is high. To ensure that you shortlist the right guy for the right job keep an eye on other aspects such as extracurricular activities, communication skills, and more.
Here are a few things to consider while shortlisting students during your 2020 recruitment for a particular job profile:
