SHORT LIST MATCH

SHORTLIST MATCH is a comparative analysis tool designed for HR decision-makers who want to make an informed choice from a shortlist of candidates.

SHORTLIST MATCH is designed for the critical stages of middle management recruitment, and more broadly for deciding between several candidates for a position. It is also highly recommended for cross-functional positions.

● Final shortlist (3 candidates per report): make a reasoned and shared decision.

● Recruitment or management committee: provide objective and clear insights.

● Recruitment of a manager or strategic expert: analyze managerial or cultural differences.

● Recruitment firm: promote a differentiating deliverable to the client.

Unlike a traditional assessment (with role-playing and lengthy interviews) or a simple personality test, SHORTLIST MATCH offers:

● A structured comparative analysis

● A contextualized assessment of candidates based on job requirements and corporate culture

● A clear, visual, operational summary

This is not an isolated diagnosis, but a quick, reliable HR decision-making tool based on the right questions.

No, it complements it.

● DeepMatch One is ideal for evaluating a candidate in depth, on an individual basis.

● SHORTLIST MATCH is designed to compare several finalists against each other, based on consistent criteria: yours.

You can run a DeepMatch One for each profile if you want a detailed analysis, then request a ShortList Match to compare and decide.

● Visual comparison tables: immediate overview of soft skills and management styles.

● Cultural projection: assessment of compatibility with the context.

● Points to watch and managerial risks: clear anticipation of areas of concern.

● Three-way summary (recommended/needs support/not recommended): easier decision-making and sharing within the committee.

● Targeted recommendations (coaching, integration): immediate action after selection.

● A rigorous method without the hassle

● Easier trade-offs in meetings: the deliverable speaks to everyone (HR, managers, executives)

SHORTLIST MATCH is designed for:

● HR managers who want to structure their decisions on key positions

● Internal recruiters who need to objectify their recommendations

● Executive committees who are hesitating between several finalist profiles

● Recruitment firms who want to provide premium added value to their end clients and save valuable time analyzing and writing candidate files

SHORTLIST MATCH is optimized for comparing three profiles and creating a final shortlist.

If you have many more candidates, you can request several comparative reports, which will enable you to narrow down your selection and provide qualitative comparative elements to facilitate your decision-making and any subsequent interviews.

SHORTLIST MATCH is particularly suited to middle management recruitment, but can also be used for experts or technical profiles.

COMPAR-ER Softskills is another option for conducting a comparative analysis of “all profiles.”

SHORTLIST MATCH provides a structured, well-argued, visual report.
It allows you to translate impressions into facts and objectify recommendations.

Ideal for convincing a committee or aligning HR/operational staff on a final choice.
