Sifted through, as candidates (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

screened

'sifted through as candidates' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for screened that I've seen before include "shown on TV" , "Subjected to checks" , "filmed" , "made available to view" , "put on TV" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
