I'd be very nervous about giving out information like that. Might end up in some employment tribunal for discrimination or something.I do not know why, can I ask the company to tell me why I was unsuitable for the position?
Sorry to sound cynical, but could it have been a job that was 'earmarked' for someone (internally) and just advertised as a matter of following procedure?
The job was a lecturing position in a third level college and I met all the criteria. The main reason I would like to get the info. is to improve my chances next time - thanks for all the replies!
They might get lostThen the FOI Act applies. You are entitled to get copies of the notes that the interview panel made during your interview and how they scored you.
Same here. There is no way I would get into such a conversation.I'd be very nervous about giving out information like that. Might end up in some employment tribunal for discrimination or something.

There should be a record of the shortlisting evaluation, and the OP can ask for an explanation of why they were not shortlisted. Most public bodies will have policies or codes of practice on recruitment which will commit them to provide such information.The problem for the OP was that they did not get an interview and want to know why so this does not apply
In your opinion...The job was a lecturing position in a third level college and I met all the criteria.
Under what rules/legislation?You are entitled to know the reason whay you were not 'shortlised' for interview.
