I was once told by someone who worked in an HR department (or Life-cycle Managers as I believe they now call themselves) that the way to deal with an excess of applications is "to choose, say, twenty at random for shortlisting and chuck the rest in the bin. After all, who wants to employ unlucky people? "
I can't be sure, but I don't think he was joking.
