Groups can easily collaborate in the online review and processing of applications, even when different reviewers are at different, off-site locations. CRS may be configured to automatically identify, classify, and rank or score applications according to objective, reviewer-supplied criteria like highest degree, years of experience, number of publications, or according to combinations of such criteria, e.g., satisfaction of minimum qualifications. Under the control of reviewers and managers, applications are easily filtered, sorted, assigned for review, annotated, ranked, grouped, selected, or rejected.
