Also, it is not unthinkable that unsuccessful job applicants should be listed, there are already places where job applicants are ranked in order of how well they did in the selection processes and that information is made publicly available.<br>

Just for curiosity, I am sure that many people would like to refer to this list of rejected applicants just to see how many people who would apply to such an insitution. I am also sure that it would be very interesting to do a quick check to find out where the rejected applicants now work and see how their current employer compares with the institution that rejected them.<br>
