\begin{abstract} 

In this note we will present a study of electron identification and isolation
variables targeted to discriminate between electrons and jets with large
electromagnetic content. We also present an optimized simple cut-based
selection criteria that allow achieving a similar level of performance
without the need of complex categorization of the official ``Loose'' and ``Tight''
criteria. The criteria utilize most of the official electron identification
discriminants with an addition of isolation requirements. The selection 
criteria thresholds are tuned to achieve higher suppression
of copious $Z+jet$ background. The new selection requirements are also 
compared to the official electron criteria within the framework of the $WZ$ analysis.
