This is probably bad practice, and I don't hire much anymore, but when I did, I could usually put the resumes in three slots: 1/ Good match, want to see 2/ Maybe 3/ No I generally give an immediate answer to 1 et 3. 2 are applicants that may do the job, but I am not really convinced, don't seem as great for the job as 1, and want to see them only if nobody in 1 gets the job. Also, 2 is definitely all the applicants that never received any answer from me, because I don't feel like telling them a straight no (in cas I'd need to interview them), and the job process usually takes a very long time. In the end, I either forget/procrastinate/feel like it's been to long to decently answer, so no answer. As I said, I'm not proud of that, I know this is bad and not respectful to applicants, just being honest at how bad I am at the recruitment job.
