Target roles that are worth your time
Before selecting the 'Apply Now' button, take a look inside the hiring process, learn from the experiences of other candidates. Run a JobMatch analysis - your resume and WorkPrint Profile are matched against the role, from capabilities, skills, and across nine dimensions that shape your ideal work environment.
Application Submitted
Draft a cover letter, or tailor a resume which showcases the skills and capabilities which align to the role, and that you actually have. Once you've applied, add the role to your Application tracker - make updates, run research and receive useful tips and reminders throughout the process. Every application, organised, and in one place.
Prepare Smarter
Build interview strength with Jen, Shortlistr's AI powered Interview Coach. Conversational interviews tailored to the role, your level, and where you're at in the process.
"Strong opening. Tighten your STAR examples for behavioural questions."
You go through the process
You go through the process: screens, interviews and, too often, waiting. Shortlistr tracks every stage and tells you when silence has become a signal.
Share your experience at each stage
Anonymous candidate feedback after each stage of the process is what creates the signal; without it there's nothing to measure. Approved reviews are made public.
Approved reviews are made public
With each review, the Candidate Experience Index and Silent Rejection Ratings are formed. Readers can add reactions while Agencies & Employers are encouraged to respond.
Gaps are easily identified
Employers and their agency partners, can view how the experience evolves stage by stage, recruiter by recruiter, and they own the fix.
The next candidate benefits
The next candidate sees what to expect before they apply, and the loop starts again.
Hiring leaves everyone in the dark.
Candidates can't see what they're walking into. Employers can't see where their process breaks. Agencies can't prove the experience they deliver.

Three perspectives. One platform. One goal.
Candidates, employers and agencies each see part of hiring. Shortlistr brings those views together, so everyone can see the whole picture and make it better.



Ghosting has become one of recruitment's defining experience failures.
Recent studies find 32–61% of candidates report it, while only around 22% describe their latest application experience as very positive.
Until now, neither has been measured. Shortlistr tracks both with two public scores, built from candidates' stage-by-stage reviews and journey outcomes. Below is how they appear on an employer's profile.
An early warning before silence is confirmed as a pattern.
