selection process

A selection process is a systematic procedure for choosing among candidates or options—typically for jobs, schools, or competitive programs.
The term implies multiple stages: applications, interviews, evaluations.
The selection process took three months.
It often appears in contexts where fairness or rigor matters: a transparent selection process, a rigorous selection process.
