  • Fairer for all candidates – part of equal opportunities monitoring

  • Easier to make comparisons between candidates - easier to short-list

  • Easier when dealing with large volumes of applicants

Sometimes, job adverts will attract 50, 100s even 1,000s of applicants.

If you were an employer, wouldn't you want to use a format that was fair to all candidates and easier for you to assess?
