Is there a way we can do this sort of vetting on Groups.io?

Yes; set up a Pending Subscription Message; this will automatically be sent to anyone who applies to join, and you can ask them to explain their interest in your group and admit them (or otherwise) depending on their reply.

That "Pending Subscription Message" will be sent to anyone who applies to join, and the "Subscription Approval Needed" notice that is sent to Owner/Moderator will both be sent at the same time, which starts a 14 day clock before the subscription application is automatically deleted.
Unfortunately at this time, there is no automatic way to not start that clock until a reply is sent to the "Pending Subscription Message".

The "Pending Subscription Message" will not delay the "Subscription Approval Needed" notice, however an Owner/Moderator can put the 14 day clock on hold by 'Claiming' the application.
Click on "View Pending Member" in the "Subscription Approval Needed" notice email,
or go to the group's website: Admin > Members
Select "Pending Members" (in the drop-down Members menu) if not already shown
Click on the row (not the check box) of the Pending Member
Click on "Claim Sub" at bottom of the page
The words "Claimed by <your name>" will appear in a blue box to the right of the applicant's email address
Now the 14 clock has been stopped and only you can approve this Subscription by email.
NOTE: All Owners and any Moderator (with appropriate privileges) can still approve this Subscription at anytime at the website.
This allows you to wait until you get a reply to the "Pending Subscription Message", while removing the 'approve by email' option to other Owners and Moderators.

To resend the "Pending Subscription Message" (if you get no response):
Check the box at the left end of that Pending Member's row
Select "Resend Pending Membership Notice" in the drop-down "Actions" menu
Click "Yes" in the "Verify Action" dialog window.
