screening questions
Initial filtering inquiries
Screening questions are preliminary questions used to filter candidates, applicants, or participants before a more involved process.
Job applications use them to identify qualified candidates: The screening questions asked about years of experience and willingness to relocate.
Medical intake forms screen for symptoms or risk factors.
Surveys use them to ensure respondents fit target demographics.
The goal is efficiency—eliminating unsuitable candidates early saves everyone time.
