From which

We have taken the time to review your details and have compared them to what the client specifically requires for this role and the other jobs we are currently advertising, from which you have been successful to go through to the next stage.

Should it be 'for' or is 'from'correct?

Thanks

of seems to work just as well, if not better. Am I wrong?

Wrong, I think. 'Of' does not work in my sentence at all.

If you re-order the relative clause in normal SV order, it seems to make sense with of, correct?

Would you have two 'to's?

Thank you
