How the Interview Scheduler Works
The interview process can follow one of two paths:
Path 1: Interviewer Shares Available Time Slots
- The interviewer selects multiple interview time slots for the candidate to choose from.
- The interviewer selects who will be the interviewer(s)
- The candidate receives an email with the proposed slots.
- They can select one of the available times or propose a new time if none work.
- Once the candidate selects a slot, the interview status changes from “Proposed” to “Scheduled.”
- Email notifications are sent to the interviewers and candidate.
Path 2: Interviewer Sends a Confirmed Time
- The interviewer schedules the interview at a specific time agreed upon in advance or determined internally.
- The candidate receives an email with the confirmed date and time.
- The candidate can view the interview details in their Active Applications.
- If they are unable to attend, they can cancel and send a message to the interviewer.
After the Interview
Once an interview is complete or the scheduled time has passed, it will automatically move to the “Past” section of the Interviews dashboard.
From there, businesses can use the “Action” drop-down to:
- Mark as No-Show: If the candidate did not attend the interview.
- Leave Internal Notes: Select “Manage Candidates” to open the candidate’s application and add notes in the “Internal Notes” section.
