Such a thing?
Is there such a thing as a PER Shortlist?
When I applied I recall being asked for a base preference on my application, I was assessed in PER, but when I was shortlisted there was no specific base shortlisting.
Should we assume that QF is contacting people (apparently) who are on the shortlist with addresses in PER?
Is that what's going on? Are they offering you a MAM role even, or just auditing their files to see who might be prepared to accept casual if the need arose in the future?
