 * stores the currently 'selected' `Person`, `Job`, and `Application` objects (e.g., results of a search queries for each `Person`, `Job`, and `Application` object) as a separate _filtered_ list (`filteredPersonList`, `filteredJobList`, and `filteredApplicationList` respectively) which is exposed to outsiders as an unmodifiable `ObservableList<Person>`, `ObservableList<Job>`, and `ObservableList<Application>`, respectively, that can be 'observed' e.g. the UI can be bound to this list so that the UI automatically updates when the data in the list change.
